Bounded By Allegiance
Ivar Bjørnson, Grutle Kjellson
Brought here by sorrow
Raised in the depths of fear
Consuming sanity
Feasting on the joy of Man
Surrounding the trembling mind
Surrounding the troubled soul
Strength failed to tame the serpent
The offspring of laughter and sadness
Saved by the power of its kin
Obeying the whispering chaos
Pulsating underneath your skin
Feasting 'till the end of time
Denying all peace within
Fearing the freedom it never feels
Bounded by allegiance
To long gone sanity
It hurts deep below
Emerge at the last step
