Epping Forest

Lyrics to Bad Omen



Frigg:

Balder my son, a mistake I made.

I gave Loki the name of the tree he needs:

Mistletoe! It spears you to the grave.

Oh, what have I done to you, Good Seed?



What have I done, Balder?



(Aeons ago)



Balder:

A bad omen I foresee,

in all my dreams

Quite disturbing they are,

and quite real

But things are not what they always seem

Are those true, Aesir? The ones I really feel?



Loki:

I'm jealous, so what? He has everything I don't!

Make him suffer then kill him,

is all I want.

Secretly I must act and not be seen!



- Hord, show them honour, throw this twig at him!



(Balder falls)



Hel:

For Balder's return, everyone must weep. Everyone!



And all had wept so deep, All but Thokk:

The sentence of Balder's Sleep.



Oh, Ragnarok is near, the world's demise

With Balder, a new world shall arise
