Oceans Rise lyrics

Deify the depths of intimate caprice

The noble morsel of the grand eternity

Face the furious and black domain

From where all the wisdom once came

As a weak and stunning flare

Yet so completed and clear

In the eyes of the elementary existence

May the fallen of eternity explode

As primal instincts of devotion

Where the seeds of chaos blow

Where the almighty substance flow

When the oceans rise

And thunder calls

The shape of furious manners fall

Where the oceans rise

Between dimensions asunder

The maze of fragmented flare

Harvest the pain of the will and despair

Where the seeds of chaos grow

Where the almighty substance bow

Milleniums are falling

Milleniums are calling

Hail!

The dawn of a new era

The Archaic Course is Borknagar's third studio album and their first to feature ICS Vortex (Simen Hestnaes) on vocals replacing Garm (who, according to Oystein Brun, "didn't want to scream anymore"), along with the addition of guitarist Jens F. Ryland. The album also features guest contributions from Enslaved guitarist Ivar Bjørnson, although he was not listed as part of the band in the credits. This is also the last album to feature the original drummer and one of the founders of the band, Erik "Grim" Brødreskift, before he died from a drug overdose
