Lyrics
Grauballe Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
blood dried black
in the river of himself
bone gone black
his throat deeply slit
life had to be
paid for with life
grauballe man
with you lay
black oxen and pigs
they are your equal
life had to be
paid for with life
swamped purgatory
hold the fearful soul
an ancient example
of dishonor
life had to be
paid for with life
time burnt corpse
eternally haunts
weak grauballe
twisted and torn
life had to be
paid for with life
