BORKNAGAR LYRICS

1. The Rhymes Of The Mountain

The mountains chime
Avast the relentless rhyme
The majesty, the regency
Revails the everlasting rivalry

Crowned by the haze of history
A ferocious tore
A regaining core
Ordained by the weight of gravity
Echoes through the halls of lore

Echoes through the halls of lore
Crowned by the haze of history

The monumental fortress of primal grace
Shimmers beyond the horizon astray
Vast and wondrouds cast of the glorious
Harmony, diversity, adversary

The cycle of all
The rise and fall
Exuberance in waste
Depravity
Excellence in barren nobility
The lore of monumental regency
The rhymes of the mountain

The cycle of all
The rise and fall
Exuberance in waste
Depravity
Excellence in barren nobility
The lore of monumental regency
Regency

The rhymes of the mountain
The rhymes of the mountain

Vast and wondrouds cast of the glorious
Harmony, diversity, adversary

Ordained by the weight of gravity
Echoes through the halls of lore

The monumental fortress of primal grace
Shimmers beyond the horizon astray

The cycle of all

Exuberance in waste
Depravity
Excellence in barren nobility
The lore of monumental regency
The rhymes of the mountain

2. Winter Thrice

The sound of the groaning frost
Enforce the waves of blinding winters
Days of reaping, nights of aghast
Seasons aligned, under the wintry sign

the groaning, moaning sound of this frost
A blinding eternal blizzard
Seasons aligned and now under the sign
Of crisp eternal winter

I have wandered the skies
throughout the stellar neck of nowhere
I have swarmed the horizon
Throughout the eternal fields of everywhere
Time and time again
From shore to shore, from star to star
The deep bloodlines of the earth as seen from afar

Upon the ground of rumbling ruins
History shattered, moments withering
Raving forces of the inevitable

I have wandered the skies
throughout the stellar neck of nowhere
I have swarmed the horizon
Throughout the eternal fields of everywhere
Time and time again
From shore to shore, from star to star
The deep bloodlines of the earth as seen from afar

Nature, the cast of the future
Upon the ground of rumbling ruins
History shattered, moments withering
Raving forces of the inevitable
Reigning unions of the nature
the regaining cast of the future
From shore to shore, from star to star
The deep bloodlines of the earth as seen from afar

Horizons that hosts no scenery
Starless, unending skies
Wakes the beastly void
Winter thrice

Horizons that hosts no scenery
Starless, unending skies
Wakes the beastly void
Starless, unending skies
The dance of stardust stills
Drapes the mountain
Winter thrice

3. Cold Runs The River

Cold runs the river
Warm runs my blood
The old signs quiver
And my mind mountain releases a flood

A life nerve in a barren era
Raised in the heat of the sun
I drink its potion from well and caldera
Through earth-veins it flows, forming a canyon

Ice draped rocks, flesh cover bones
The cabals of eternity burn in the night
As the watercourse that rinses all stones
Unify my path with the river site

Cold runs the river
Warm runs my blood

Groundwater recharge, blood pumping heart
Circulation systems refined
Streams of wonder, where my torrent starts
Time and motion aligned

Ice draped rocks, flesh cover bones
The cabals of eternity burn in the night
As the watercourse that rinses all stones
Unify my path with the river site

As the river of time and nature's crown
Face season's last breath and the final exploration

Cold runs the river
Warm runs my blood
The old signs quiver
And my mind mountain releases a flood

As the river of time and nature's crown
Face season's last breath and the final exploration

Ice draped rocks, flesh cover bones
The cabals of eternity burn in the night

4. Panorama

Inner landscapes provide the ground for structures
Development plans, architectural design
nature in it's purest form, the very idea of being alive
Intuitions feeds the progression

Read me, decipher every word
Then multiply the dormant issues
Just tear me down, then build me up again
Accentuate, proliferate, recreate

Vines and trees, new species on cultivated grounds
Planned sequences and astonishing leaps
Everything grows, everything dies
Everything regenerates, slightly altered

Blueprints come in three letter systems
Inside repeats the outside repeats the inside
The distance between what we see and how we see it
A perpetual cycle of adjustments

Read me, decipher every word
Then multiply the dormant issues
Just tear me down, then build me up again
Accentuate, proliferate, recreate

Echoes of what was
Resound in what is
Between organic structures
And inside them

5. When Chaos Calls

Shores retreat in disarray
melting glaciers lead the demise
And connect the rapidly rising tide
A ramming fluid out of firm ice

A wall of waves and an abyss of water
Drench the land, coastal erosion
Submerged by the increasing sea levels slaughter
It stirs our inner ocean

Shores retreat in disarray
Melting glaciers lead the demise
A wall of waves and an abyss of water
Drench the land, coastal erosion

When chaos calls
A drowning of the skyline
A world ruled by horizontal waterfalls
They flood out of pandemonium's shrine

We're buried by persistent snowfall
It levels out topography

When chaos calls
A drowning of the skyline
A world ruled by horizontal waterfalls

No more hinderance for the storm to call
Out, to destruction and catastrophe

Periodic freezing unsettles
Building a kingdom of frost
Chaos dressed in a calm pettle
Set to efface and exhaust

Submerged by the increasing sea levels slaughter
It stirs our inner ocean

When chaos calls
A drowning of the skyline
A world ruled by horizontal waterfalls
When chaos calls
A rift in earth's core
A world ruled by horizontal waterfalls

They flood out of pandemonium's shrine

6. Erodent

The trails of existence thrust into the future
A future that crumbles, riddance by revulsion
Woven roots uphold the ground, earthly bound
The ground we walk, the ground we fought

Rivers drift into eternity, draining the potency
The endless maze, the blinding haze
Shimmering uphold the course
(the plains we scour, the plains we tear)

Waves that rave the coastal line
Rain that reaps the breeding soil
Wind that pierces the heart of man
The fire that burns all creatures around

The trails of existence, entwined through history
Eras that passed in degenerative haste
Grind the roots, withering grounds
The ground we walked, the ground we fought

Waves that rave the coastal line
Rain that reaps the breeding soil
Wind that pierces the heart of man
The fire that burns all creatures around
The ground we walked, the ground we fought

A past that holds the dawn of man
A march that crumbles stones to sand
The vast exploration, the last ravage
The prodigies of ruination

Erodent
A past that holds the dawn of man
Erodent
A march that crumbles stones to sand
The trails of existence, entwined through history

Waves that rave the coastal line
Rain that reaps the breeding soil
Wind that pierces the heart of man
The fire that burns all creatures around

7. Noctilucent

Deep in the twilight, crystals of water ice
Lightened by a sun that dwells below the view point
Eerie and shining clouds, on darkening skies
As dust and vapor conjoin

Noctilucent

8. Terminus

The boundary is my stronghold
I push the glacier towards the edge
Stepping across the horizon's threshold
With unexplored domain to wedge

I catch the sun and tame the flares
As thunder strikes for a hundred years
A climd the hills, they are my stairs
To the starry sky and to the ardent spheres

Terminus
I catch the sun and tame the flares
Terminus
As thunder strikes for a hundred years

The culmination and the foundation
First man to the end of the world
The gateway and the manifestation
Of the borders I expand, in a storm swirled

Beyond the branches, deep in the sources
I have my home, I have my trust
A climd the hills, they are my stairs
To the starry sky and to the ardent spheres

Terminus
Beyond the branches, deep in the sources
Terminus
I have my home, I have my trust

The elemental outline of the universal courses
First man to the end of the world
While sea and land clash under stellar dust

Raised to seek, grown to see
The flames of creation and prosperity
At the end of the path I build my fortress
With pillars of dreams and nature's primeness

9. Dominant Winds

The hills erode, a change of landmarks
And ancient trees are skinned
Of (leaves) branches and the outer bark
By an ever blowing wind

Its rule and strength lead the rise and fall
Insects drift along the sweeping regime
At mountainous locations massive rainfall
Still, birds follow their inner scheme

From the polar cyclone
A timeless and transparent grindstone
And by the trade winds of the equator
The air flow builds a subtropical gyrator

The hills erode, a change of landmarks
And ancient trees are skinned
Of (leaves) branches and the outer bark
By an ever blowing wind

From the polar cyclone
A timeless and transparent grindstone
Pressure is high but the sun angle is low
Dominant winds

Pressure is high but the sun angle is low
Dominant winds scalp the ridge's crest
Cooling and condensation grows
It hauls from the north and heads from east to west

We're strapped in this blusterous maze
Still unaware of its daily toil
We'll get a glimpse of its power and pace
As we're standing on degraded soil

From the polar cyclone
A timeless and transparent grindstone
And by the trade winds of the equator
The air flow builds a subtropical gyrator
