2. Something else to challenge delicate sensibilities
(WARNING: Disturbing and morbid imagery)

http://www.dimmu-borgir.com/video/sorgens-kammer-del-II.mpg

English translation (for those who don't speak Norwegian):

The echoes of silence sets the hour
Gagged in the chains of depression, I fall away
No more I will be bolted fast in the anchor of melancholy
But finally get my longing fulfilled - for leaving

Did I drink too much from the goblet of optimism?
Did I take the vanity of joy for granted?
For my battle against the pain of emptiness - this intoxication of the angst of death
Is all that remains that is mine

In my loneliness I still know
That I have none but myself to thank
This is why I keep my calm
As the rope tightens around my neck


(Verse repeats)

Mute witnesses can not give comfort
The common man in the assembly of the gravechoir
This land of perdition
I created by my own hands

This intense attraction to the portals of death
A wandering study of tearful black mass
Controlled since the dawning of time
But something I never would let go - was the sorrow

In my loneliness I still know
That I have none but myself to thank
This is why I keep my calm
As the rope tightens around my neck
