Fate Weaver
Do you remember how to use the scissors?
Do you remember how to use the comb for wool?
To form Wool
Do you remember how to use the spindle?
Do you remember how to use the distaff?
To form a thread for weaving
Feel the thread for weaving
Pulling you, holding you in place
Do you remember how to use the loom?
Do you remember how to use the weaver’s beam?
To form your woven web
Follow the threads for weaving
Even if it means this brings about your doom
Do you remember how to use the weaver’s reed?
Do you remember how to use the weaver’s crank?
To form a Web of Wyrd
I am the warp
You are the weft
I am fate
You are the weaver

Fate shall be my weapon brother
Fate often saves an absolutely doomed hero when his courage is strong
Thus I fill my heart with courage and my spirit with honour
Fate shall be my shieldwall brother
I stand strong, with my fate,
and I withstand whatever comes my way
I stand strong, with my fate,
and I withstand whatever comes on my path
Fate shall be my victory brother

Fate is carving the truth in my bones,
the unfolding truth in my life
I let go of my skin
So that fate came to be
I surrender
I wander,
out of time, out of space
I move on,
free from fear, free from the mind
Fate is carving the truth in my bones,
that which will come to be
I let go of my skin
So that fate comes to be

Epic full-length debut is a superbly crafted, black metal LP blending choirs, strings, wailing guitars, and soaring vocals.

i like this version better than the original. The middle part has that aggression that makes the excellent balance with the beginning and ending of the song.
