Losing Altitude - Ihsahn

I’ve seen it in your eyes

Disappointment and distaste

The reoccuring patterns

Countless hours gone to waste

I’ve watched you change your balance

But the formula repeats

Haunting voices calling you

To walk along their dead end streets

They need to hear the words from you

They want to know this to be true

So cut deep

Deeper than you’ve ever did before

No matter what you give they still want more

The dead weight has to go although it hurts

'Cause you’re losing altitude

Like an offering to burn

They lay there burdened down

The bitterness of blood and tears

Dig deep into the ground

(Deep into the ground)

Where root shoots right beneath

An ancient mountain tree

The acrid smoulder of a sacrifice

Embrace you like a hazy bay

They need to hear the words from you

They want to know this to be true

Cut deep

Deeper than you’ve ever did before

No matter what you give they still want more

The dead weight has to go although it hurts

'Cause you’re losing altitude

Deep

Deeper than you’ve ever did before

No matter what you give they still want more

The dead weight has to go although it hurts

'Cause you’re losing altitude
