Songtext von Passing Eyes in Mimer's Well

To curb the raising light of faith, and apprehend the day I passed my eye in Mimer's well, to resurrect the fray An eye for eye and blood for prey, is what I had to cede Enlightenment and withstanding day, the outcome of my deed The ancient yarns reveal their tale; once wisdom was a trait But ignorance and fruitless peace, has caused it to forfeit Where ravens fly through vanquished skies, resounding with success I seek to stray in grassy fields, and rest in maidens' nest At wisdom next to Mimer's well, I stand among the leaves The protegee of life and death, beneath the gods retreat The sights of past and present times, ascend from in the well Foreseeing visions of success, and glorious decay The ancient yarns reveal their tale; once wisdom was a trait But ignorance and fruitless peace, has caused it to forfeit Where ravens fly through vanquished skies, resounding with success I seek to stray in grassy fields, and rest in maidens' nest
