The lyrics were based upon the philosophy of Max Sterner. The Singer, Nergal, is quoted saying:
Whil...
I, the Sun ov man
The offspring ov the stellar race
My halo fallen, and crushed upon the earth
That I may bring balance to this world
I, son ov perdition
From sheer nothingness transgressed
Unto the highest self -- to utmost freedom
To explore the starry nature ov my rage
I, pulse ov existence
The law ov nature, undenied
I hold the torch ov Heraclitus
So I can shake the earth and move the suns
I, divine Iconoclast
Injecting chaos into my veins
With life accepted, with pain resurrected
Is the embrace ov God in man profound?
The joy ov a dawn
The ecstasy ov dusk
Nourished have I, this karmic flow
Where great above meets great below
Let it be written!
Let it be done!
Scattered I walk towards the fractured light
