Ravens circle Restless Crying Feast is silent Torches lean One-eyed father Fist is tightening Blood on the snow Teeth in the mead Who broke the oaths on the high stone? Who spat lies in the hall-fire light? Every spear-hand feels that shiver Air grows sharp as a drawn white knife Odin’s mad tonight Sky splits open Roaring white If you lied You’d better ride There is nowhere left to hide Odin’s mad tonight Names like branches Snapped in spite Hear that howl across the pines All your prayers just turned to ice Wolves are pacing round Valhalla Helm on the throne Jaw set hard Runes are burning on his knuckles Every letter A coming scar Who brought shame to the longhouse? Who brought rust to a clean steel mind? Every boast now shakes and stumbles Every coward tastes hot iron Odin’s mad tonight Sky splits open Roaring white If you lied You’d better ride There is nowhere left to hide Odin’s mad tonight Names like branches Snapped in spite Hear that howl across the pines All your prayers just turned to ice He gave you breath You gave him blame He carved you fate You cursed his name Now feel that gaze Behind the storm The hunter comes In human form (hey!) Odin’s mad tonight Sky splits open Roaring white If you lied You’d better ride There is nowhere left to hide Odin’s mad tonight Mead runs bitter Stars go blind When that shadow fills your sight Know his rage has crossed your line
