Reader of the Runes: Divination
This track is instrumental.
In the gloom of the misty woodlands In the wake of wisps of willows Follow the trails of a fallen star To the sound of a flock of ravens And the ebbs of the creek below Follow the signs, send a glance afar She left her robe behind Wind clad and unconfined In the wake of a winter's night The cult of light enchains Profaning her remains In the fire of tempestuous sighs Bestowed to oaken spirits And summoned by the Gods Walk on the trail of unhallowed soil She spends her nights in terror Followed by gruesome beasts Walk on the signs of the serpent's coil She left her life behind Sky clad and unconfined In the wake of a pagan's night The cult of wrong enchains Destroys and carries pain In the fire of insidious sighs Breaking away, the runes have been speaking the truth, your destiny Sailing away, to a future beyond of rebirth and devilry You shall rise and deprived of deceit You'll carry words of pagan purity Walking away, reborn Heathen Divine, you'll relive in reverie Passing beyond, a dark wooden shelter Into the storm I won't need your smiles anymore Whole as the night, strong as a vulture There is no deal the Devil has not paid back for The runes have been cast - Her fate sealed The first of eight… The end of all… Breaking away, the runes have been speaking the truth, your destiny Sailing away, to a future beyond of rebirth and devilry You shall rise and deprived of deceit You'll carry words of pagan purity Walking away, reborn Heathen Divine, you'll relive in reverie Breaking away, the runes have been speaking the truth, your destiny Sailing away, to a future beyond of rebirth and devilry You shall rise and deprived of deceit You'll carry words of pagan purity Walking away, reborn Heathen Divine, you'll relive in reverie

A dense knot of desires Eight spirits are alight In morning dews and fire Eight diamonds in the night At the sight of the flames, stories tell secrets unknown The desolate sound of runes forlorn Will abide in the weaves of life We are the waking light Wings of a raven Waking light - divination Waking light – this story's told for me, for me We are the waking light Far from our haven Waking light - divination Waking light – this story's told for me, for me Eight spirits clad in sorrow They're searching for their cores The horizon drafts the morrow On their memories dissolved At the sight of the flames, stories tell of secrets sealed The sign of the stones, truths will reveal Divine your arcane We are the waking light Wings of a raven Waking light - divination Waking light – this story's told for me, for me We are the waking light Far from our haven Waking light - divination Waking light – this story's told for me, for me We are the waking light Wings of a raven Waking light - divination Waking light – this story's told for me We are the waking light Wings of a raven Waking light - divination Waking light – this story's told for me, for me We are the waking light Far from our haven Waking light - divination Waking light – this story's told for me, for me

On that summer's eve We have made a deal Endorsed by a seal We'd stay together Pain and fears to allay On that very day I trusted your prayers Lightweight as feathers We are destined to ache Astray far away Towards the lands of the enemies Way to remedy the Silverseal The light of day far away Is a guidance to our legacy Break the Silverseal Look inside my frost Mirrors of the lost Souls with no remorse I thought you were worlds apart A pain that's hard to care We will never dare To defy that flare It shined and now fades – all dark We are destined to ache Astray far away Towards the lands of the enemies Way to remedy the Silverseal The light of day far away Is a guidance to our legacy Break the Silverseal We will all waste away You will be betrayed Destined to stay alone – we are destined to ache In the runes I can read your demons I can see the haze that fill your voids I can see the stern that wraps you up Astray far away Towards the lands of the enemies Way to remedy the Silverseal The light of day far away Is a guidance to our legacy Break the Silverseal Astray far away Towards the lands of the enemies Way to remedy the Silverseal The light of day far away Is a guidance to our legacy Break the Silverseal

Blind human beings Loading on other's shoulders the fruit of their fears The holes in their souls are filled by thick delusions Shallow assumptions and words rubbed in the face Of the ones who cannot bear the weight Of this mess – the distress - and the anguish They claim they've chosen light over the dark Darkness my beauty, the only comfort of my life I am the one, my soul cast in amber Forever one, adrift on a crimson sea From the ashes all stains mend and disappear I am the one, in a sweet deathly slumber Far from the sun, in the shade of a fallen tree Misanthropic, the way of the pagan Lear God grant me the gift of tolerance For I alone cannot bear the burden of communion I'm not willing to sharpen the perception they all have of me I despise the ones that seek the truth in set phrases all written in vain As with a previously owned dress they try - to fit in the words They retrace others' lives, absorb their light And rebuild their own frail peace of mind They assail and censure - with a haughty and blatant smile Their arrogance, audacity, mistrust There is no place for me, I let all of you go I am the one, my soul cast in amber Forever one, adrift on a crimson sea From the ashes all stains mend and disappear I am the one, in a sweet deathly slumber Far from the sun, in the shade of a fallen tree Misanthropic, the way of the pagan Lear Answers don't grow on a tree fed by fatuous conjectures There are more things in death than in any of their unconditional relishing lies In a world that has gone beyond, leave your memories behind, Undertaker And rest, forever endangered, forever alone I am the one, my soul cast in amber Forever one, adrift on a crimson sea From the ashes all stains mend and disappear I am the one, in a sweet deathly slumber Far from the sun, in the shade of a fallen tree Misanthropic, the way of the pagan Lear Who does not comprehend can leave The gathering is now closed, the invocation ended The misfortune of virtue

Unveil your spirit And dream of home All of the fears that are binding your hands are now gone I read your dark I see your sun The runes are now cast and they speak the tongue of the Earth I'm the Reader of the Runes I'm searching diamonds in the night All the way across the firmament Where stars paint fates aligned I'm the Reader of the Runes I'm luring gemstones in the light And the wake of all their deeds Will thrive and burn alight Promise. Darkness. Sin. Fortune. Vowed on the chance of a sweeter embrace As I speak, you fall
Raised in the company of snakes The parlance of a serpent Born from the caring of a crow The acuity of a bird of prey "All appearances they fall when the soul is shattered And dear reason... back she crawls when the heart is battered" A sad, sad song is tuned for me A mess of words surrounded by dust Conceived under the sign of a black star Hurt and misery Disruptive, ill-willed, inhumane The look on all their faces A freak of nature, soul condemned And damned by the Almighty "Enamoured by the likelihood of absolution Eye lids opened just in time for execution" A sad, sad song is tuned for me A mess of words surrounded by dust Conceived under the sign of a black star Ruin and grime is all you'll see "The first rune shows me life The second love The third rune is for mockery The fourth for malice And the fifth rune is... death" "Look away don't hold your breath, they are deceiving Look away don't hold your sighs, unleash your anguish" A sad, sad song is tuned for me A mess of words surrounded by dust Conceived under the sign of a black star Ruin and grime is all you'll see

Sound the horns, grand is their call Blessing the triumph of the battle Nourished in blood, the pain of us all The outcry of our final rattles Rising in power, the glory of our kings Soaked in their moral, shame and filth Sold for a penny and sold for their means We're bound to be choking on all their sins Thus always to tyrants, inglorious ride Sic semper tyrannis, the devil and his bride A gush of blood, settled our tales Written by hands of a monster The branches now rooted and grown on our trails Bloomed from the hurt of our fathers Rising in power, the glory of our kings Soaked in their moral, shame and filth Sold for a penny and sold for their means We're bound to be choking on all their sins Thus always to Tyrants, inglorious ride Sic semper Tyrannis, the devil and his bride "They will hang from the oldest oak on morrow And a pale moon'll light the sky Their necks will crack – no one'll feel any sorrow And a crooked cross will stand there wry" Nightfall – this will be their last nightfall Nightfall – this will be their last nightfall Thus always to tyrants, inglorious ride Sic semper tyrannis, the devil and his bride "They will hang from the oldest oak on morrow And a pale moon'll light the sky Their necks will crack – no one'll feel any sorrow And a crooked cross will stand there wry" Nightfall – this will be their last nightfall

Read the words I collected for you Sing of drowning in lakes of your eyes Calliope lightning the stars above that pine To you, my beloved concubine I gifted poems of brine You were Beatrix, muse of hellfire, spawn of love As the winds inflate anger And the storm is raging on Raven wings and magic runes I foresee your crucible Dancing heathen ancient rites At the light of the torches Reading fates into the stones I invoke pagan forces Leave my ashes to the wind Scatter my remains into the sea Leave them sink into Oblivion and on Warden of the bane Art is judgement without any court I was a jester tied at the stake Giving my heart away until it ached As the winds inflate anger And the storm is raging on Raven wings and magic runes I foresee your crucible Dancing heathen ancient rites At the light of the torches Reading fates into the stones I invoke pagan forces Leave my ashes to the wind Scatter my remains into the sea Leave them sink into Oblivion and on Way before the cost At your throne of apathy My poetry has died within my pain I will not embroider words for you, again Warden of the bane Leave my ashes to the wind Scatter my remains into the sea Leave them sink into Oblivion and on Way before the cost At your throne of apathy My poetry has died within my pain I will not embroider words for you, again Warden of the bane

I can sense a demon within carries your name Oh Ethel, Dear Ethel I'll carry hurt to their divided hearts Somebody died on that dark awful night Somebody's bound to bear the price Unaware under a pale moonlight The runes will wake blood sacrifice The gods foreshadowed and the stars complied A gift of potency on silent tides A pact was written and in magic sealed A power tool under a hood concealed A lullaby for the fragile souls For those who held the scene A chant to those who pay the toll What will be with what have been Isa told of spells and moans Othila traces plans unknown Feoh spoke with its ancient tongue As Alghiz hails the one I'm the Reader of the Runes I'm searching diamonds in the night All the way across the firmament Where stars paint fates aligned I'm the Reader of the Runes I'm luring gemstones in the light Somebody died on that dark awful night Somebody's bound to bear the price Unaware under a pale moonlight The runes will wake blood sacrifice Isa told of spells and moans Othila traces plans unknown Feoh spoke with its ancient tongue As Alghiz hails the one I'm the Reader of the Runes I'm searching diamonds in the night All the way across the firmament Where stars paint fates aligned I'm the Reader of the Runes I'm luring gemstones in the light And the wake of all their deeds Will thrive and burn alight I can sense a demon within - it carries your name Oh Ethel, Dear Ethel I'll carry hurt to their divided hearts I can sense a demon within - with blackened wings They're marching!
