Ash of the Last Silence

Intro

Hljóðs bið ek allar — I call the broken sky…

(Hu-ha!) I walk where even gods refuse to die —

No throne remains, no reason to lie —

Only ash in the wind and a blackened eye…

Verse 1

I came from the ruin after worlds collapsed,

Where the roots of Yggdrasil finally snapped.

No gold in the halls, no feast in Valhöll,

Only echoes of thunder in an empty skull.

The seas had swallowed the name of land,

Mountains dissolved like a weak command.

Fire still crawling through frozen stone,

Even the gods left the world alone.

I stepped through the silence where memory burns,

Every truth I touch is a world that turns.

Fenrir’s shadow still biting the air,

Even after death he’s still somewhere there.

I saw Odin gone but his eye still watching,

Reality cracked where fate was botching.

No prophecy left, just fragments and rage,

Like torn-out verses from a final page.

Pre-Chorus

Who speaks now when the runes go blind? (go blind…)

Who carries truth when the gods unwind?

I asked the void but it answered slow —

“You already are what you wanted to know…” (uh!)

Chorus

I was ash when it ended — I rise from the none (from the none!)

I saw the last silence and the broken sun (broken sun!)

No gods, no masters, no chosen one (no chosen one!)

Only the echo of what’s been done! (Hu-ha!)

Verse 2

Surtr’s fire still crawling under skin of earth,

Burned every prophecy before its birth.

Hel’s gates are open but no one returns,

Even the dead forgot what it learns.

Loki’s laughter still stuck in the wind,

A joke that the cosmos never rescinded.

Chains dissolved where time lost grip,

Reality stutters in a fractured script.

I walk through rubble that used to be fate,

Every direction just opens a gate.

North is a memory, south is a scar,

East and west don’t know where they are.

The world is a wound that refuses to close,

And I am the silence that quietly grows.

Pre-Chorus

No Odin, no counsel, no eye in the sky (in the sky…)

No answer returns when the strong men cry.

Just frost in the lungs of eternity’s breath —

And the calm understanding of nothing left. (uh!)

Chorus

I was ash when it ended — I rise from the none (from the none!)

I saw the last silence and the broken sun (broken sun!)

No gods, no masters, no chosen one (no chosen one!)

Only the echo of what’s been done! (Hu-ha!)

Bridge

(ask the void… ask again…)

“What remains when the myth is slain?”

Only the pattern that forms from pain.

(ask it…)

“Who rules when the crown is dust?”

No one remains… and no one must.

The runes dissolve in a blackened sea,

No destiny left — only “used to be.”

Even Ragnarok was just a door,

And I am what comes after war.

Drop — Instrumental

Final Chorus

I was ash when it ended — I rise from the none (from the none!)

I saw the last silence and the broken sun (broken sun!)

No gods, no masters, no chosen one (no chosen one!)

Only the echo of what’s been done! (Hu-ha!)

Outro

The world forgets its own name…

(Hu-ha…)

And I remember nothing — perfectly.

(Nú er allt eitt… and still it moves.)
