Symphony of Heaven - Mountain of Man's Ignorance

from All Things Christian Extreme Metal: Volume 2 by Various Artists

lyrics

Verse 1
Scale the mountain of humanity's ignorance
For surely your wisdom surpasses all
Reward yourself with Reason's enlightenment
For the masses drink of the bitter gall

By Faith you destroy Faith with blackened words
By Reason you consume all who come before
Cut your flesh on unveiling the mysteries
Come receive your reward

Chorus
Crest the peak and be dismayed
By your faith you've been betrayed
There before your eyes sits the truth that you despise
They've been here for centuries
Ancient men your enemies
Divinity has bridged the great divide

Verse 2
Fall into the snare built with your own flesh
Stumble into the pit of your ignorance
The mountain has rejected your call
Now into fire and torment you fall

Prechorus

How did I not perceive this
Descending into a wretched state
All my life's worth as filth, now decaying
My own reality I now hate

Chorus 2

Ascend the height and see your demise
By ignorance your thoughts are despised
The Fire will proceed uncompromised
He's been here eternally
Ancient One, Divinity
And brought to light the truth you tried to hide

Bridge
The earth overtakes you
The stones cover your grave
The ancient ones ascend upon your place of unrest
Come receive your reward
As death reveals who was your lord
As pain repeals your precious whore
The light fades to death

Come receive your reward as death reveals who was your lord .

..That you despise
Their reason have desolved
You pointless lies.

... bridged the great divide
And brought to light the truth you hide..

In general, I’m not very keen on doom metal, but this album appears as an exception. The dark atmosphere and the beautiful melodies held my attention from the first seconds, but what that really made me give in are the mesmerizing vocals. This record is honestly something you don’t want to miss. Monia Lisa
