Lyrics

Ashen the world creates itself / up the branches down the roots / pecked at by birds / by worms gnawed / at the crossroads / by the graves among the rowan trees / nailed white as ivory / with skulls that grin amidst the rot

For strange are these woods to fare / stranger the fruit they bear

Oh hang me high / upon that tree / for all the secrets to find me / as ravens' claws / as eagles' bills / as wotan's eyes upon the hills / oh ten I have of fingers fine / for all the evil's work in the night / oh baby I will grow for you from a tree

Burning with glory

Given to trolls and ogre broods / days will drown in twilight's gloom / where black dogs howl / pulling up mandragore / chained to the ash forever more / deaf to the world's grey roar / digging up treasures vile and foul

Eye for an eye for a rune / drawing down the waning moon / howled at by all wolves / ensnared 'til the day of doom

So hang me high / upon that tree / for all the secrets to find me / as ravens' claws / as eagles' bills / as wotan's eyes upon the hills / oh ten I have of fingers fine / for all the evil's work in the night / oh baby I will grow for you from a tree

Burning with glory

All crooks and ghouls who understand / cherish the work of idle hands / all of the pages turned / all of the treasures yearned / all of the fingers burned

Burning with glory
