I am the fountainstorm from a black heart
I am the desert of redemption
I soar on dead wings of sin
I am pre-nun with a cracked virginity
The arrows of my direction... failed to hit me *
[The arrows of moderation failed to hit me] **
But the ones who came with fear and hate
Kissed me. Deep. Long. And HARD.
The rose that smelled...
[And those who spelled DEATH are SO ready]
Pale as skin and the cheeks of jewish fairytales
[Paler skin than the sheets of jewish fairytales] ***
Is sold upon every soul and body of life - LIFE?!
[Is sown upon every soul and body of life]
And I wonder!
Who sees desolation
Through my eyes, hopes and visions
[Through my eyes, holds the vision]
And makes love to it

NOTE:
-All lines without square brackets are reprinted from the official lyric sheet included in the booklet of the 2011 version of "Goatlord".
-All lines within [...] are alternative lines reprinted from the equally official lyric sheet included in the Moonfog tribute release "Darkthrone Holy Darkthrone".
-There are several differences between the two, and in some places the tribute album lyric sheet is more correct than the "Goatlord" lyric sheet.
* and ** : "my direction" is what is printed in the "Goatlord" booklet, but Fenriz actually sings "my erection".
Moonfog prints (and Dødheimsgard sings) "moderation" on the version on "Darkthrone Holy Darkthrone".
*** this line is censored as "jewel fairytales" on the "Darkthrone Holy Darkthrone" official tribute album lyric sheet.
