As The World Burned
05:01

I stepped into the rain
the winter of 1985
And saw a subtle chaos dripple
from tips of my fingers
And the hurt bleed through
And the shadows grew long
And the great storm of misery
collapsed around me
And the body of time fell faceless
into my mind and dug its claws
into the visions of twenty thousand hells
and four hundred millions fields of fire and glass
Pissing into existence
manifesting themselves as rain and illness
I stepped into the fire
the dreadfull fall of 2004
connected with space in all possible ways
Tore my fucking heart out and smiled
As the world burned
and the sky screamed

And you fell as a bird with no wings
And you shivered as a tree with no leaves
And you stood there on a field with no crops
And you were naked as a forest with no trees
And you spat into the face of the wind
Calming the waves with eyes as fire
And you ripped out the fabric of longing
and offered it to the storms
And the house of kindness deserted
And a chasm between bitter shame and laughter
shall be your final reach for a dream of death
And fear shall own you no more …

Ceremonial Rot
10:34
|
|||
|
Screaming like a dying pig
in its ceremonial rot
the machine of arrogance collapse
And I see fair children
Bathing in its blood
lit by sunlight
and bliss
Your reign is blessed
by emptiness
and beauty
This realm is free
and remains eternal ...
This realm is free and remains
Splendid
Bright
Graceful
Beautiful
and sane

Hill
20:34
|
|||
|
Crippled white wings
scratch the inside
of a darkened hill
bursting with noise
Your voice trembles
Your voice is roaring
through dreamscapes and other walls
yet to be broken down
by force
We leave everything behind
but the shattered remains
of what once was our secret desire
to cleanse the smudge
and the filth
and the dirt
and the shit
And then stand beneath a white sun
Burning holes in the clouds
to reveal a bright sky
underneath
Your rivers run
beneath this bright sky
Beneath this white sun
your rivers run
Your rivers run
They pass a withered hill
once bursting with noise
now rejoicing in trance
This realm is free and remains eternal …
Forever and eternally
this world
with all its grace and deformity
with all its subtle despair and blood soaked glory
is truly brighter
than Death
My worlds collide (in dreams)
Shattered across the universe
Putrid and broken
Sinking into the soil of being
Yet to rise … shapeless … formless
Like an infinite void
Yielding only to the beauty of chaos
And the noise
of crippled white wings
scratching the outer spheres
of what once was the echo
of your trembling voice
silenced by a reckless hunger
for madness

Söngvar elds og óreiðu
by Misþyrming
supported by 4 fans who also own “And The Mouth Of Time Is Open (2013)”
Swirling guitars, furious drums, vocals that at the same time howl from infinite distance and are right up in your head; everything put into dissonant form with the help of unconventional songwriting. This album is my personal key to the icelanding black metal madness that I've ignored for way too long!

Yith creates fascinating music, so dark and mysterious. As a long time black and doom listener, Yith still might be the darkest thing I've heard.
