Lyrics: The Insight and the Catharsis
[Shagrath:]
(The Insight and the Catharsis!)

Passenger on confessional course
Unlock with the key you behold within
Repaint the shadow of your mind
And come awake

"Oh, dreadful angel of mine
Enrich me with the vastness of your being"

"Rigid father, teach me to comprehend
I'll commit myself to understand
To be the faithful and the instrument
So that the ones with blindfold can see what I have seen"

[Vortex:]
"That there is nothing inbetween
For I am the accomplice..."
Aghast and tender, indulged in sin
Embraced by loneliness, legions who grin
I blunder into the realms of slumber
I collide with the obscure

[Vortex & Shagrath:]
And see the last fraction of light go by

[Guitar solo]

[Shagrath:]
Plundering the sanity from the insane
(And) providing appearances in black
Carefully swept in decadent spheres
(But) faces in this world always remain darkened

In circles of dominance, emotional deeps unite
Fiction and transcendence woven together
In the essence of purity lies wisdom
Join the forces, the spiritual black dimensions

[Guitar solo]

[Shagrath:]
What more do you need of proof
Human hands conforming clooven hoofs
For I know the secrets and lies behind all truths
Knowlege is power and the power is mine
It's all mine

So let the children come to me
And share the limitless ways to infinity
Escape death and disease
And behold youth and vitality

(Come on, Stuttgart. Let me fucking see your hands in the air!)

[Vortex:]
"Oh, dreadful angel of mine
Enrich me with the vastness of your being"

"Rigid father, teach me how to comprehend
I'll commit myself to understand
For I am the accomplice..."
