Staggering Upwards Lyrics

Album: Torsten

Vengeance has been taken

I spilt his blood upon his darkened throne

His soul will be swept amongst the winds

and a fathomless eternity shall await him

No longer black are the clouds

No torment is there for me

A sleep awaits me

Atop a lonesome mountain

The gods have tested my strength

And I prevailed as the conqueror I am

These black lands have been vanquished

Torment and suffering are lain to rest

I now make my journey

To the frozen peaks

Darkness does not follow me

But not a shred of light comforts me

Upon the world

On a seat of stone

I take a final gaze

Of the world alone

An ugly sight of retched masses

Betraying their only sanctions

The cold north wind blows

Sweeping through the valley

I clear my mind

And search for a lost peace

The madness in my eyes

That shed one frozen tear

Fades into the setting skies

Be it known there is nothing I fear

With no life to loose

Not a meaning or purpose

I let myself free of warmth

And enclose myself in frost for all eternity

And now these last words are spoken

My endless journey is complete

I bid a farewell to nothing

For everything has given me this wretched life
