the trees cover the sky
their limbs wrap around mine
I feel them move me now
along the earthen ground
we traveled to a hall
where bark and bough made wall
one face in three I saw
the Sacred
here the Goddess whispers runic
here the Goddess comes to light
gaze upon Her might and glory
bringing dead and night to life
I walked upon the logs
and blood was dripping from
the leaves so far above
caught I was
where the Goddess whispers runic
where the Goddess comes to light
I saw ghosts and curses lifted
in the hall that lives at night
"have you come to be Her son
here you come to grow as one
only a Goddess can grant such power
rend your flesh and gild your mind
if you seek Her transformation
Her name in truth you'll speak in time
She is not the witch they've told you, no
She brings light where there is none"
the trees renew my eyes
I hear their whispers clear
roots guiding me from fear
when they tell
where my Goddess whispers runic
where my Goddess makes her light
I will take the three paths to You
I pray You will take my life
A great compilation. I'm included on it alongside a myriad of great artists. Check them all out, and take a look a Death Root's catalog for some more great stuff. Bishop and Atheist
