[Intro]
[Female Vocal]
[Choir]
Stone, swear. Iron, swear.
Water, wolf, and winter air.

[Verse 1]
[Female Vocal]
Frigg went down where the dark roots drink,
Past the well and the raven's brink.
She touched cold stone with a mother's hand:
"Spare him by sea, by sky, by land."
Iron bowed in the mountain vein,
Fire bent low in its copper chain.

[Pre-Chorus]
[Female Vocal]
Every blade gave back its bite,
Every fever forgot its name,
Every beast in the bark-brown night
Lowered its tooth and tamed its flame.

[Chorus]
[Duet]
Frigg's oath, Frigg's oath,
Bind the blade and bind the bone.
Frigg's oath, Frigg's oath,
Hold the sun above the foam.
Every world has sworn it now,
Bring my bright son home.

[Verse 2]
[Female Vocal]
Eagle swore from the cliff's red crown,
Serpent swore with its eyelids down.
Oak and ash and whale-road wide
Promised no harm to Balder's side.
Even the spear in a warrior's dream
Turned to reed in a harmless stream.

[Pre-Chorus]
[Female Vocal]
But beside the gate where shadows cling,
No footstep stopped, no vow was drawn.
A little green thing in early spring
Drank from the bark and waited for dawn.

[Chorus]
[Duet]
Frigg's oath, Frigg's oath,
Bind the blade and bind the bone.
Frigg's oath, Frigg's oath,
Hold the sun above the foam.
Every world has sworn it now,
Bring my bright son home.

[Instrumental Break]
[Frame drums and bowed lyre trade ritual phrases over low guitars.]

[Bridge]
[Female Vocal]
A mother can bargain with mountain and sea,
Can bend old iron and fever's decree.
But love counts kingdoms and misses a leaf,
And mercy leaves one door open for grief.

[Build-up]
[Choir]
Stone had sworn.
Steel bent low.
Storm gave oath.
One green mouth stayed dumb.

[Final Chorus]
[Duet]
Frigg's oath, Frigg's oath,
Bind the blade and bind the bone.
Frigg's oath, Frigg's oath,
Hold the sun above the foam.
All creation answered her,
One small branch did not tell.

[Outro]
[Female Vocal]
[Choir]
Stone, swear. Iron, swear.
Mistletoe breathes in the winter air.
