Lyrics
In the time before time, I was fighting
In a distant past, I engaged in battles.
The desperation, the grief, and the pain
I faced intense emotions like despair, sorrow, and agony.
The weapon of time I was yielding
I used the concept of time as a weapon to ensure the survival of my kin.
So the kin wouldn´t vanish in vain
To prevent the disappearance of my people, I fought.
I held out my hand, befriended the slave
I extended friendship to a slave, offering my hand.
He gave me hospitality and trust
The slave reciprocated with hospitality and trust.
Blind to the ways of the flickering kind
Unaware of the ways of a fleeting and transient existence.
His reward was my treacherous lust
My betrayal and deceit were the repayment for the slave's kindness.
The soldier bid me welcome, I bowed in awe
A soldier welcomed me, and I humbly acknowledged his reception.
I told him the ways of my house
I shared the traditions and customs of my family with him.
He beheld the son of sense and lust
The soldier witnessed the offspring of sensuality and desire.
In the morning the awareness aroused
Awareness dawned upon him in the morning.
Smugly I entered the realm of the king
With arrogance, I entered the domain of a king.
As a herald of time and of space
As a messenger of time and space, I announced my presence.
We carved the runes, we drank and sang
We engraved symbols and celebrated with drinks and songs.
To mankind, to gods and their grace
To humanity, to gods, and their benevolence.
The tree set ablaze at the end of my days
As my life nears its end, a symbolic tree is set ablaze.
Awaiting my deserved death yell
Anticipating the cry of death that I deserve.
Long forgotten, no one whispers my name
Forgotten by time, my name is no longer spoken.
In the mountains and forests, I´ll dwell
Amidst mountains and forests, I will reside.
