lyrics

I stood alone upon the highest mountain
Far above me the blood red storm clouds choked the sky.

I watched the light die
I saw the ravens fly
I wept for mankind
I am the end times

Once all the stars in the sky where bright
Now they're dead and fading
Warmth from the sun lit the fire in my heart
Now I lay in the shadows hiding my eyes.

Beyond the edge of the world the serpent lays, swallowing his tail in circle of creation.
Out amongst the waves we hear his songs. At war with the sky

Kneel at the foot of the oak
Prostrate before the gates of dawn
Chanting sacred lore
Of knowledge unbound

Those of the old blood are bound

Speakers of the true ways
Warriors heathen born

Take your spear and pierce the sky

Rain to wash seed to soil
Soil to mix with blood and bone
Blood and bone to feed the serpent

Your body is the rock, the mountains
Your breath is the mist, swirling over oceans wide
The oceans are your tears, weeping for the kin less.
The winds are your mournful voice telling tales so old.
