Heimdall
05:39
|

|
World of more,
Noise and lies,
Ghosts and suffering,
Control - numbers everything.
Lost in time and a
Broken space,
Numbers roaming free,
I care - less is more for me.
Chorus;
This greed, this need of our kind.
Heimdall, sees all, of the worlds, 9.
Just words, just words, redefined.
Just words, just worlds, end of time.
In the dark,
I see stars,
Shining through the night.
Bifrost - welcoming the light.
Free from greed and a
Need to need,
Things are left behind.
I’ve seen - a glimpse of all mankind.
World of war,
Poised to die,
Soon to be released.
9 worlds - need to be at peace.
Chorus

Allfather
05:37

|
Allfather’s word is law,
Allfather hears your prayer,
Long, forgotten Aesir,
Midgard beyond repair.
Allfather’s word is law,
And he must hear your view,
Give your counsel wisely,
This cycle must begin anew.
Serpent,
Rising,
9 Worlds,
In Darkness
Serpent,
Rising,
9 Worlds,
Colliding
Call to battle from Gungnir
Dark, Light,
War, Peace,
Silent / sound of a million voices
One more / word before final choices
Serpent / crawls ashore,
Winter / freezes all
9 worlds / burn in the darkness,
Ragnarok!

Loki

|

|
Caged for centuries,
Doomed for mischief and
Truth, a memory,
Lost art, cast out by
Asgard’s folly, you ‘Gods’ know nothing of
Mankind honoured my words -
The Trickster
Bound by numbers,
They count their blessings and
Theirs is not to decide our end.
Silent sound of a million voices as
One more step to my freedom, poisonous
Serpent crawls ashore,
Winter freezes all
9 worlds burn in the darkness,
Ragnarok!
Flames glistening, none are listening,
Asgard making your wars to end us all!
One voice, for my choice
One last leap to my freedom.
War cry, to break ties,
Sunlight fading for all life, endless night,
Time for all time,
Raise the dead for the end time,
Set me free.

Frigga
07:08
|
|||
|
[Male] Without, time, dreamless,
Gunningagap, nothing.
9 worlds cleansed by fire,
Surt’s flaming sword,
Aske.
Frigga, our, mother,
Sharing wisdom, tell me,
Has Midgard strayed too far
To save itself?
Hide them, in Yggdrasil.
[Frigga] Without, dreams, timeless, lost in nothing,
Endless.
These children need Asgard,
To save them from,
Darkness.
Aeons, of, timeless,
Learning nothing, hear me;
Makers of mankind,
Choose carefully!
Chorus;
Aeons of time, how can we decide?
Makers of man, ending, time nigh.
[Frigga] Dreamless, slumber, like a child in my arms,
Be at peace, now.
[Male] Without dreams, timeless, lost in nothing,
Endless.
We children need Midgard,
To save us from,
Darkness.
Without, dreams, timeless, lost in nothing,
Endless.
These children need Asgard,
To save them from,
Darkness.
[Frigga] Without, time, dreamless,
Gunningagap, nothing.
9 worlds cleansed by fire,
Surt’s flaming sword,
Aske.
Without, dreams, timeless, lost in nothing,
Endless.
These children need Asgard,
To save them from...
Chorus;
Aeons of time, how can we decide?
Makers of gods, ending, cries,
From the billions of the 9 worlds sounding.
Aeons of time,
Why have we learned nothing?
Makers of man,
Do we go too far?
Aeons of time,
Why have you learned nothing?
Makers of gods,
Do you go too far?

Ragnarok
03:22
|
|||
|
Fire consumed, all,
Asgard be at peace.
Life and light, gone,
Wastelands, blooded sleep.
Worlds of more, still,
These days are silent now.
Fire consumed, all.
No-one, wondering how...
Chorus;
Just worlds, all words, unrefined.
Just words, all worlds, redefined.
New words, new worlds, for all time.
Poor Midgard! Lost.
Its fate was not its own.
Choices made, Thing,
The gods decide alone.
Numbers have, lost,
Their power over man.
All too late, now,
Our leaders’ masterplan.
Hidden in the life tree,
New dawn,
For the 9,
Safe from harm,
Hidden in,
Yggdrasil,
Yggdrasil.

Yggdrasil
04:17
|
|||
|
Flowing stillness,
Growing strong,
New life,
Springs forth from me,
All belong.
Flowing stillness,
All belong,
Here.
Flowing stillness,
Moving on,
Our, past lives,
Have been swept clean,
Chosen few remain here from the 9,
Hidden inside of me.
Flowing Stillness,
Growing strong,
New life,
Springs forth from me,
Chosen few remain here for all time,
Hidden inside of me.
Ever changing,
And ever still,
Old and evergreen
I am Yggdrasil.
Ever changing,
And ever still,
Old and evergreen,
Yggdrasil.
