BLOOD OF THE BLACK OWL LYRICS

1. Caller Of Spirits

2. Wind Eye

Staring through the window
Staring through the window of decay
Staring through the window

To remember strength...

Staring through the window
Staring through the window of decay
Staring through the window

3. Rise And Shine

All the elders have (are?) fallen down...

Heal her now...

All the elders have (are?) fallen down...

Heal her now...

Grandfather elk
Turned to me
And spoke:

Light the fire deep inside.
Light the fires!

4. Sundrojan

Falling apart at the rising sun
Frozen
I fall back on soft grass
Soil and ice
Looking back
Raging
How did you
Forget ?
The voice has been
Torn
Asunder
Torn

I am torn of truth
Can you look now at the sky ?
And remember ?
Remember
That my heart is bleeding into the world
How many times do we fight this battle
Over and over
Ever onward
Necessary

Sundrojan
I grasp for the earth
Sundrojan
I am separate..

This part of me that railed
Was broken
But sees again !
That darkness that bit and clawed
But the blood was thick !
Sundrojan
But I remember !
Remember !
I am now the voice and the speaker
The light and the dusk !
Torn
I am no longer
Torn !
Torn !

Sundrojan
The two are now one !
Sundrojan
Torn asunder !
But re-fleshed !

5. Two Ravens At The Tree Line

The unrequited lust for sleep
Punishment for our
Waking hours !
Cold
Steel
Sky
Of morning..

This is when !
This is when !
We hung people

Breath deep the freezing air

Praise the ice!
In your veins!

Beat the head against the light !

Bastard light of day !

Two ravens at the tree line

6. Soil Magicians

Stream teacher
I call to thee
Thank you for the flow
I offer these words:

Our heart hails father sky

soil mother we embrace your womb
to heal

We toil within your forests
We are the sowers and the seed

We will gift you children

Scythe-ritual !
Soil magic !

Mother earth, father sky
Our works are yours !
See the trees grow for eternity !

Green forests
Glens and thickets !
The great wheel spins
Above us !
And with the waters we flow
For you !
Our mound-ritual
Soil magic !

We are the plant teachers !
We toil within your forests!

Turning the earth, forever!....

7. Disgust And The Horrible Realization Of Apathy

Your bones are ice
Shattered by words
Buried by time
Look in the mirror
Language reduced
To dust !
Lost and forgotten !

Your pillar broken

Will you reconcile ?
Abuse !
From loss of memory
Abuse
From lack
Of shame
Can you destroy
The mirror ?

Is the risk to great ?
Lose
Reduce the mirror
Shatter
Absorb reflection

Your bones are ice
Shattered by words
Buried by time
Look in the mirror
Language reduced
To dust !
Lost and forgotten !

Your image broken !

Will you reconcile ?
Life left to rot !
While you slept
Lives destroyed
Through
Selfish
Denial !

Can you destroy
The mirror ?
Is the risk to great ?
Lose !
Reduce !
The mirror !

Shatter !

Absorb reflection...
Absorb !
