Lyrics
1993 a year of misery?
Reflecting on 1993 as a year of misery
Darkness fills the sky
Describing a dark and ominous sky
I hear the warriors cry
Hearing the cries of warriors
The legend tells a story
A story is told through legend
From a Viking from the north
Referring to a Viking from the north
Who met a Death Warrior
The Viking encounters a Death Warrior
Black Metal was never really the same
Stating that Black Metal changed after this encounter
The legend call it murder
The legend refers to the event as murder
And the Viking had survived
The Viking survives the encounter
But the eyes of the Death Warrior
The Death Warrior loses sight of the sun
Never saw again the sun upon the sky
Emphasizing the impact of the encounter
And the quintessence:
Introducing the quintessence or essential nature
Everyone recognized war
Everyone recognizes the presence of war
That Black Metal isn't just
Black Metal is more than entertainment
Entertainment anymore i can still remember
Recalling emotions and confusion
My emotions so confused
The soul seeks answers
My soul was seeking answers
Not using a knife symbolizes unanswered questions
No knife I let unused so many questions
The soul is tortured but believes in the right path
I had to satisfy my soul was under torture
Observing a cemetery under fog, hinting at a somber atmosphere
But I knew my way was right
Confident in the correctness of the chosen path
I see a cemetery fall asleep under fog
Expressing a realization that the past will not return
And I know the old days will never come
1993 is the year of misery symbolized by a knife
Again
The knife signifies the split in the Black Metal scene
1993, this year of misery was the knife
Since 1993, Black Metal took different paths
Which split the Black Metal scene apart
Unity in Black Metal was lost
Since that mighty day Black
Reflecting on lies, rumors, and negative emotions
Metal split his Way
Referencing the day when Burzum killed Mayhem
And the unity was never the same again
A call to remember and stay true to one's path
Lies, rumors and hate moneymaking, sadness
Emphasizing the encounter between the two warriors
And shame and all this by
The intensity of the moment, with blood and a red moon
The Day as Burzum Killed Mayhem
Black Metal faces its demise
Remember this day! Remember this way!
Dreaming of days before, honoring Black Metal purity
That you never betray, what here leads you
A call to remember the pain and history
On your way! And I never will forget
Referencing the past in the veins, suggesting a deep connection
The day as this both warriors met
Cutting off the past to let it flow like rain
The blood was hot the moon was red
An expression of frustration or emotion
And Black Metal created his own grave
Reflecting on the legend of the day when Burzum killed Mayhem
And I dream from days before
Dreaming of a time when Black Metal enthusiasts were true warriors
Black Metal Maniacs, no whore
Being part of the legions of war against conformity
In the legions of war
Reference to internal demons and the law within
The demons in our heads the law
Summoning a collective memory to never forget the pain
So I summon you once again
Recalling the legend of the day when Burzum killed Mayhem
We should never forget the pain
An insistence on not forgetting the painful history
From older days in our veins
Reflecting on the impact of past events on the present
We now cut of that it can flow like rain
Symbolically cutting off the past to allow for renewal
Arrghh, this was the legend from
An expression of frustration or intensity
The Day as Burzum killed Mayhem
Recapping the legend of the day when Burzum killed Mayhem
