Runes

Runes you will reveal in the dust of ancient times

Remember my sacrifice when I hung for these nine nights

Runes they were concealed in the dust of ancient times

I died to be reborn when I suffered these nine nights

I know, I sat in there for nine icy nights

Facing the endless darkness around me

Wounded by my own spear on the wind called tree

I'm Woden, hallowed by my own pride

A tree unknown, the roots, his probes

Let my life slowly fade

From above a fitless seal I hung

Committed to my fate

Delivered to the fright of endless ice and night

I had to gaze into the misty world

Of Niflheim the dire, northern frost empire

Of my self-chosen solitude

Runes you will reveal in the dust of ancient times

Remember my sacrifice when I hung for these nine nights

Runes they were concealed in the dust of ancient times

I died to be reborn when I suffered these nine nights

When I began to grow evanescent by pain

I sunk from the tree with a sigh

The knowledge of the dead I learned

Cause only cruelty can forge

And then word just followed word

A tree unknown, the roots, his probes

Let my life slowly fade

From above a fitless seal I hung

Committed to my fate

Delivered to the fright of endless ice and night

I had to gaze into the misty world

Of Niflheim the dire, northern frost empire

Of my self-chosen solitude

Runes you will reveal in the dust of ancient times

Remember my sacrifice when I hung for these nine nights

Runes they were concealed in the dust of ancient times

I died to be reborn when I suffered these nine nights

Runes you will reveal in the dust of ancient times

Remember my sacrifice when I hung for these nine nights

Runes they were concealed in the dust of ancient times

I died to be reborn when I suffered these nine nights
