Crumpled message in a dead man's mouth
Cowering ghost's mad laughter
While cobwebs all but gibber
The puppet strings are snared and bated
Cards cast face down waiting
with long lost heroes blinded in gibbets
Wolves bring down the sun
While ravens peck out their eyes
On Ragnarok field wait a million crumpled words
Gaps between the stars grow
and the gods begin to dim
Carrion cloud the maze
Mortal wounded hero stands
casting blood of fallen foe
glowing in a crimson haze
Whining dirge of piper's drones
mingle with the call of the horned man
Rising like the tide of dawn
Crumpled bodies lie in wait
Crumpled notes in each blue mouth
Crumpled words gibbering death rattles
