about

Odin's sacrifice.

lyrics

Obtaining the insight,
yeilding to committment,
to the action of discipline through selfless change,
acceptance and challenge, willing to offer all unto the world,
a godly deliverance, a wholesome transition,
having viewed the maidens, envying their might,
nine days and nine nights, to advance present visions far beyond,

Offering the body,
submitting the mind,
renouncing the present, extending the soul,
leaving current senses behind,

Hanging from the world, the future beholds,
a grand belief, in the eyes to perceive,
aiding in the tales to be told.

The runes revealing all,
but first the host must fall,
through sacrifice we gain, the significance of pain,

The spear punctures deep enabling the rites of passage,
through transcendence we walk without the foul grasp of contempt.

His unquenchable thirst for understanding all the mysteries of life,
sacrificing myself to myself.
Balanced on the precipice, that seperates the living from the dead,
a scream of exultation, reawakened, with knowledge of the runes etched in his head,

Then I was fertilized and became wise,
I truly grew and thrived.

Then I was fertilized and became wise,
I truly grew and thrived.

Nine days, nine nights,
sacrificing myself to myself,
nine days, nine nights,
sacrificing myself to myself.
Nine days, nine nights,
sacrificing myself to myself,
nine days, nine nights,
sacrificing myself to myself.

Higher self,
higher self,
higher self,
higher self.
