(couplet 1)
Echoes from the darkest past
Resonate in this prison
Visions of despair, aghast...
Nightmare's tyrannical ambition
(chorus)
616 shrieks within
Of tortured souls
616 shrieks within
From deepest hell
616 shrieks within
They command me to kill
616 shrieks within
They order me to die
(bridge)
My carcass obey their will
The blood must spill
(couplet 2)
Cold breath from a faceless corpse
Outlook on altered realities
Bloodstained hands, knives and forks
Sirens tear nocturnal myteries
(chorus)
(bridge)
(couplet3)
Antichrist reigns upon my fragmented mind
No drugs nor prayers to contain the curse
I am a ghoul rotting in this cell, tied
616 shrieks now burst from my skull
This is up there with the best atmospheric black metal. Totentanz is a perfect example for the building of an emotional song. The intensity of it is spectacular. And the vocals are phantastic, too. mourner
