[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
The branches
The songbird
The lifetime
The serpent
[Verse 3]
The branches of the old tree creak
The songbird sings its elegy
The lifetime leaves are turning pale
The serpent gnawing and spitting
[Verse 4]
Praising the 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
[Verse 5]
The branches
The soldier
The glare
The serpent
[Verse 6]
The branches of the old tree creak
The soldier swinging swords
The glare in the hearts is fading
The serpent feasts with joy
[Verse 7]
Chase the serpent
Step on his tail
Grant it eyes to behold
Grant it wings to expand
[Verse 8]
Grant it thoughts to convey
Grant it claws to destroy
[Verse 9]
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
[Verse 10]
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
[Verse 11]
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
