about

A rowan tree is struck by lightning. When it bleeds, people are inexplicably drawn to it, to hang themselves.

lyrics

Under the Moon, high in the Northern sky
The Rowan stands with talons reaching high
Under the Moon, high in the Northern sky
Swing the men of humankind, the place they come to die

CHANT:
Dance daughters, make the ring
Dance daughters, laugh and sing
Dance for all the corpses' souls
Dance for flesh that feed the crows

Suicide they did not deem
Yet compelled to come, despite
Unwilling victims, they help themselves
Dying by their own hand tonight

CHORUS:
Under the moon, high in the Northern sky
The rowan stands with talons reaching high
Under the moon, high in the Northern sky
Swing they in the place they come to die
To die....

Split by lightning, broken, torn
Stands the rowan in mourn'
Weeping softly tears of blood
Playing host to souls forlorn

CHORUS:
Under the moon, high in the Northern sky
Where the broken tree weeps
Under the moon, high in the Northern sky
Where the dead men come to sleep
Under the moon, high in the Northern sky
The rowan stands with talons reaching high
Under the moon, high in the Northern sky
Swing they in the place they come to die
To die....
