Chess With The Abyss — Dimmu Borgir

Old dreams return Disillusioned I yearn Am I buried beneath sand and clay? The caress of cold soil With limbs crippled to the coil Locked inside a nightmare womb

Tarnished and grief stricken Emptiness within a void Longing for the sun to shine To discourage the demonoid

Salvation! Darkness reborn!

We seem to keep fading away Holding on to that last final sway A doctrine of self salvation Darkness reborn on resurrection day?

Stagnating in dead waters While circling above the surface Of the deep pale desert sea Cutting that other life of lines

Salvation! Wish we'd never met Salvation! And rather gone our separate ways Salvation! All times spent together Salvation! Are the darkest of days Salvation! Darkness reborn!
