Gods knows HOW, but this lyrics has captured something soooo powerful and deep, yet so elusive....All this years, still one of the best songs ever written!
Wow. These are outstandingly interesting and elevating lyrics. I´d say it takes a lot of time and personal work to be able to write words of such wisdom, proving you can have a purely mountain/nature/wilderness type feel and talk about timeless spiritual and metaphysical wisdom that would actually be very close to taoist and astrological understanding. It would be amazing that there were more conscious and metaphysical lyrics like this in Black Metal. It´s been going on for long enough now to have grown up out of the only satanic anti christian bullshit that maybe served it´s purpose aiding this music to define it´s identity. But there´s so much room for psychological, social or philosophical insight that why not use it. After all, most black metal people I´ve met actually have an avid interest in these themes. If anyone knows other interesting lyrics of this new kind in Black Metal I´d appreciate some names ! Hail Borknagar and this new wave !!
