Journey of Transformation: Embracing Shadows and Unveiling Purpose
Lyrics
There's a shadow etched in stone,
Contemplating a lasting impression or influence represented by a shadow in stone.
Of a likeness to my own -
Reflection on a resemblance between the speaker and the etched shadow.
Were I fearsome, born of war -
Imagining a formidable and warlike nature if the speaker were fearsome.
Were I feasting at the High One's Hall.
Considering the possibility of enjoying grand feasts in a divine hall, possibly in an afterlife.
There's a rising tide in me,
Acknowledging a growing internal intensity, akin to a rising tide.
Pulling forth a swollen sea.
Describing a powerful force within, comparable to a swelling sea.
Should I storm Death's hefty door?
Contemplating the idea of challenging death's formidable barrier.
As a wave that hammers on the shore?
Considering the speaker's impact akin to a relentless wave pounding the shore.
I see the Hanging Tree
Observing a symbolic Hanging Tree that binds and influences the speaker.
That tethers me
Feeling a connection to the Hanging Tree as the speaker ventures forth.
As I fare forth.
Expressing the act of moving forward or journeying.
With a burning blade in hand,
Equipping oneself with a metaphorical burning blade, possibly a tool for change or transformation.
And a breed now come to brand -
Referring to a new generation or type that is marked or identified.
There, a blaze I will to grow -
Expressing the intention to nurture a blaze where shadows thrive.
Where a shadow feeds upon the glow.
Highlighting the symbiotic relationship between the blaze and the shadows it consumes.
I see.
A moment of realization or understanding.
As a spear, I am thread,
Describing oneself as a spear, a tool of precision, moving through darkness.
Through the woven darkness -
Navigating through the complex and woven aspects of darkness.
Gift of Gar.
Attributing this ability to the gift of Gar, possibly a mythical or symbolic reference.
As a spear, I am thread,
Reiteration of being a spear threading through darkness, emphasizing persistence.
Through the woven darkness -
Repeating the concept of moving through woven darkness, suggesting continuity.
Seek and sew.
Encouraging exploration and discovery in the act of seeking and sewing.
