Ihsahn - Elevator lyrics

Night comes with a smell of murder And shadows fall long on my trail Such are the hazards of my craft All lights disperse And the devil takes me down There is panic in my fascination Like soothing wine is my despair Gracefully I fall to pieces Then lights disperse And the devil takes me down The gears keep turning And the ropes stretch far In this world of hopelessness I have come a long way now

The fatal riddles Beckon me I have come a long way now A leap from faith And gravity I have come a long way now To find the nest Where treasures sleep I have come a long way now The fairest lies Are hidden in the deep In the deep There is vanity in my destruction There is mockery in my ordeal Indefinite is the course of my decent When lights disperse And the devil takes me
