Axis of the Worlds

Lyrics

Fortresses built by idle hands
 Weapons forged in the shadows
 Solemn words praise the devoted and brave
 Stepping on the threshold of the insane
 -The walls must be breached
 The branches of the old tree creak
 The songbird sings it's elegy
 The lifetime leaves are turning pale
 The serpent gnawing and spitting
 Praising the high king on his golden throne
 For shelter, harvest and peace
 Seeking council in the halls of the tyrant
 Dwelling on the doorsteps of doom
 -The walls must be breached
 The branches of the old tree creak
 The soldier swinging swords
 The glare in the hearts is fading
 The serpent feasts with joy
 Chase the serpent
 Step on his tail
 Grant it eyes to behold
 Grant it wings to expand
 Grant it thoughts to convey
 Grant it claws to destroy
 EIHWAZ/EOH
 Envision the sacrifice
 EIHWAZ/EOH
 Glance into the worlds
 EIHWAZ/EOH
 Let the blood heal
 EIHWAZ/EOH
 Let it grow, let it rot
 As certain as birth and death
 Grief will follow laughter and joy
 The vermin will return to the lair
 But the branches will never break
 -The walls will breach
