Gods in the abyss

Odin's one eye… frost in the stitch
Raven's dry cry… I died in a ditch
Nine nights I hung — no breath, no air
Forgive me… Baldr's not there

Mistletoe stick… pierced through the mild
Baldr the quick… became a dead child
I brought my throat — I brought my hair
Forgive me… silence is his prayer

Loki, you snake… dripping in chains
Laugh for my ache… I carry my stains
Fenrir yawns wide — jaw like a door
Tyr has one hand… he's not asking for more

Wolf in the frost… teeth on the bone
Tyr doesn't speak… he sits on a throne
They watch from the dark — rope on the floor
Forgive me… I've knelt here before

No thunder… no whisper…
No bite… no kiss…
Just my own fever…
…and gods in the abyss
