Eyes like diamonds
Filled with tears crying
Scream out for mercy
Let them have none
Their eyes frightened
They know that they're dying
Raise up your blade
Don't let them run
A break in your side
A fang in the thigh
A hole in the neck
Ulfhednar
A break in your side
A fang in your thigh
A hole in the neck
Ulfhednar
Killing for pleasure
Fueled by desire
Call out for one god
And you will see none
Blade forged by odin
Forged for the slaughter
When the killings done
Surrender your weapon
In woods to retire
Outcast of the masses
You slave your whole life
And receive no sum
But pay is for labor
And you are an artist
With blood as your paint
And an axe as your brush
A fang in the thigh
Ulfhednar
A hole in the neck
Ulfhednar
You've got a
Strong back from the
burden you carry
After your slaughter
At the end of the day
When the time comes
For the gods to judge you
Will you server
Or will you perish
Ulfhednar

Ballad of the Bush Wolf
06:34

Under the starlight
I stand and see
All of the others vanish
Except for me
Is this a punishment
What is it i have done
With haste to find the answers
Through the prairie and plains i run
I come across a mountain
And i traverse its peaks
I arrive on the same side i started on
The mountain speaks
"You can see where you are going
But can you envision the end
Start your journey at your destination
And you'll clear your head"
I clear my mind and think of
The open field where i was born
A landslide comes and carries me
Safely to my home i soar
On the way we stop by a river
With a current too strong to pass
I would surely drown if i attempt it
So i spoke up and asked
"Great river how could i pass you
With your currents that rip the flesh"
A face raises up from the water
And she responds to my request
"A young whelp like you must be patient
And learn the ways of the current of life
To be level minded in your psyche
Will save you from a worrisome life"
I step into the river
And almost slip under the flow
But i carry my pace with the riptide
And on my journey i go
The fields of straw hold a history
Not many eyes can see
These plains are home to my bloodline
And the lines of others like me
We wear the skulls as a symbol
Of the fate that we will all share
When the raven comes and takes its due
My family will meet me there

Coyote Altar
07:33
|

|
Hollowed trees mark the pathways
Hanging vines hide the view
Of the sacred dancing grounds
They only want to be seen by you
Ancient runes are drawn in sand
Sacred herbs are sparked to flame
Low humming fills the air
Eyes are watching from the plains
When you see your reflection
And it doesn't look right
There is some commotion
In heaven tonight
Strange symbols on the pillars
Latrans barking from afar
Give yourself to the old ones
At the coyote altar
You don't need to understand it
If it doesn't feel so wrong
Hear your sound and command it
Sing out your ancient song
Run far past the tall trees
Dig through the thorned brush
Bite down on your prey's neck
Feel the hunt its timeless rush
No need for reflections
Out in the wild
No need for reflections
Rune enchantments on your fangs
Canis major in the sky
Guided out by the old gods
From the coyote altar
Arrow pierces through your side
Blood it pools as you die
But fear not as you are mourned
An old god you'll be reborn
Past the tall trees you see farther
As your teeth become the brush
The river flows as your blood now
A coyote altar has been born

Lily in the Light

I thought that you'd be
There by the wayside
When the lilies and the flowers
Came and took
took me away
The kids came out to play
While you cried in the corner
All day
I thought you would follow
I didn't think you would stay there
But right now
I couldn't care
My worries are gone
Im drifting along
I cant feel a thing
I cant feel a thing

An Odd Color

I am here from long ago dear
you may not know me by name
they'll tell you I am to fear
they will tell you I'm insane
they will try to hurt you
come here into my arms
I will keep you safe and sound love
I will heal your scars
I am an old soul
I am an odd color
I am an old soul
I am an odd color
I am an old soul
I am an odd color
I am an old soul
don't you mind the sting when i touch you
it in time will fade
just like everything before you
pain is an illusion babe
I am an old soul
I am an odd color
I am an old soul
I am an odd color
