Arcana Imperii - Ihsahn

There was always a presence

In the tantalizing shadows of your dreams

An enigmatic whisper

Resonating though your very being

And now you have come too far

The paths you followed here are gone

This is the black, this is the night

This is your dawn

It was always a part of you

Like a seed, a destiny in your blood

From which there was no escape

The unconditional absence of god

There is no return

It’s too late

The eyes of the abyss already deep inside

You stayed too long and now you leave but nothing changes

It is far too late

The dreams will bleed into your waking hours

And now you belong

To something that is yours and yours alone

No return

You have come too far the paths followed here are gone

This is the black, this is the night

This is your dawn
