In Flames "Jotun" lyrics

Jotun

I often dream of huge numb buildingsjet-black sinister architecturebeing installed when nobody seesTheir appearance so suddenthat few would take notice

And when I wake upI imagine being crushed by oneimagining its weight its silenceand the absence of excusesfor a havoced lifeand the privilege of a 22-kilometretombstone

Jotun

[Chorus:]A body of blackthat carried no reflectiondefying its own roomun-earthly eggs of decreation

There would be coloniesmushroom-scattered forever out of contextrising spores from a dying worldto pollute to chase away what's left

Sun-white pulverised desert stoneand serpentine lizard mouthsPales away the pyramidsrewriting 4500 years of historyraping the statue of libertyoutplays the acropolisinverting the fjordsinvades the n y skyline todream its own existence in one single finalword

Jotun

[Chorus] [2x]

Can we identify themas the flint buried in our reptile skullsor the time-bomb coded in our dna

Jotun

[Chorus]
