Excavation

(album: How Far To Asgaard - 2002)

What would you give, what would you offer to be given wisdom
Which extremes would you go to, to be given the mead
Give an eye or even sacrifice to you yourself
You should have seen, even your life
Must take an end sometime

Was there a way had your eyes had seen more
If you had the chance to read your runes and find your

Fate, excavate, then would you hesitate
To see what will be your predestined fate
"I see, finally, visions of what will be
My fate, hesitate, it will be too late
...When done"

What did you give, what did you offer to be given wisdom
Are you glad and does your soul rest in your wide learning
Just which horrors lie ahead you did not know of it then, knowledge
It can darken minds like clouds the shining sun from above the earth

Now you know all, was it worth an eyeball
You had the chance to read your runes and find your

Fate, excavate, did you not hesitate
To see what would be your predestined fate
"I see, finally, visions of what will be
My fate, hesitate, it will be too late
...When done"

Was there a way had your eyes had seen more
If you had the chance to read your runes and find your

Fate, excavate, I saw you hesitate
To see what will be your predestined fate
"I see, finally, visions of what will be
My fate, hesitate, it will be too late
...When done"
