CANTANTE: Babylon Whores
TITULO:Hand Of Glory
Ashen the world creates itself / up the branches down the roots / pecked at by birds / by worms gnawed / at the crossroads / by the graves among the rowan trees / nailed white as ivory / with skulls that grin amidst the rot For strange are these woods to fare / stranger the fruit they bear Oh hang me high / upon that tree / for all the secrets to find me / as ravens' claws / as eagles' bills / as wotan's eyes upon the hills / oh ten i have of fingers fine / for all the evil's work in the night / oh baby i will grow for you from a tree Burning with glory Given to trolls and ogre broods / days will drown in twilight's gloom / where black dogs howl / pulling up mandragore / chained to the ash forever more / deaf to the world's grey roar / digging up treasures vile and foul Eye for an eye for a rune / drawing down the waning moon / howled at by all wolves / ensnared 'til the day of doom So hang me high / upon that tree / for all the secrets to find me / as ravens' claws / as eagles' bills / as wotan's eyes upon the hills / oh ten i have of fingers fine / for all the evil's work in the night / oh baby i will grow for you from a tree Burning with glory All crooks and ghouls who understand / cherish the work of idle hands / all of the pages turned / all of the treasures yearned / all of the fingers burned Burning with glory
