The Heretic Hammer Lyrics
Vengeance is mine
Neither sweet nor kind
Vengeance is mine
No longer will I be held responsible
For the error of your ways
My conscience
Stand defiantly proud and rigid
So take my advice
Meet your opposition
Profane and disciplined
Take back your pride
With a pounding hammer
No longer will I be held responsible
For the error of your ways
My conscience
Stand defiantly proud and rigid
So take my advice
As long as my icon has flesh
No one puts me to the test
And as longer my spirit permit
There will be no fucking rest
Vengeance is mine
Neither sweet nor kind
Vengeance is mine
Vengeance is mine
I owe you nothing
But scorn and contempt
From all that is holy
I will have my revenge
Vengeance is mine
No longer will I be held responsible
For the error of your ways
My conscience
Stand defiantly proud and rigid
So take my advice
As long as my icon has flesh
No one puts me to the test
And as longer my spirit permit
There will be no fucking rest
With wisdom and fate
I design darkness
You keep feeding me denial and hate
And from that I will create
Arrogance and deception
Torment and bliss
How I envy your lack of justification
When mine is so sincere
Neither sweet nor kind
Vengeance is mine
For the error of your ways
Stand defiantly proud and rigid
So take my advice
Profane and disciplined
Take back your pride
With a pounding hammer
For the error of your ways
Stand defiantly proud and rigid
So take my advice
No one puts me to the test
And as longer my spirit permit
There will be no fucking rest
Neither sweet nor kind
Vengeance is mine
Vengeance is mine
But scorn and contempt
From all that is holy
I will have my revenge
No longer will I be held responsible
For the error of your ways
Stand defiantly proud and rigid
So take my advice
No one puts me to the test
And as longer my spirit permit
There will be no fucking rest
I design darkness
You keep feeding me denial and hate
And from that I will create
Torment and bliss
How I envy your lack of justification
When mine is so sincere

When I first heard this song after buying this album I wasn't impressed. I'd downloaded the EU special track and felt it was better and that we'd gotten ripped off. Over time, I've come to feel it's one of the better songs on the album, very fitting. My only nag is that while the lyrics posted and in the album state "There will be no final test" if you listen, I', pretty sure Shaggrath says either "There will be no fucking test", or "There will be no fucking rest". I've tried and listened and listened and at no point does it sound like he says "final" in the song.
Yeah I hear what your saying man, I just listened to it again and it does sound more like fucking, I decided had to go with the album though because its usually very rare that Dimmu have profanity's in their lyrics.
It does sound like fucking but kinda throws off the vibe of the album in one sense. This song is great, the verses: I owe you nothing But scorn and contempt From all that is holy I will have my revenge
gives me a monster rush (like so many other songs for that matter), really powerful verse in my opinion.
Sounds to me like he wants revenge on christ. Typical lyrics for Dimmu
