Agalloch - Sowilo Rune lyrics
[Agalloch - Sowilo Rune lyrics]
Lord Summerisle:
"Now, those children out there
They're jumping through the flames in
The hope that the god
Of the fire will make them fruitful really
You can't blame them after all
What girl would not prefer the child of a
God to that of some acne-scarred artisan?"
Sergeant Howie:
"And you encourage them in this?"
Lord Summerisle:
"Actively! It's most important to teach
New generation born of Summerisle
Be made aware that here the
Old gods aren't dead"
Sergeant Howie:
"And what of the true God? To whose
Glory churches and monasteries have been
Built on these islands for generations past?
Now shall what of Him?"
Lord Summerisle:
"Oh, He's dead he can't complain he had
His chance and in modern parlance, blew it"
