Run, run, run, run, run,
Run, run, run, run, run;
Run for the Fire,
Run from the Flames;
Run for the Glory,
Run from the Fame;
Run for the order;
Run for the name;
Run from the yoke,
Run for the tamed.
Run from the holy,
End up in Elle,
Gorgeous Glory,
Run towards Folly;
And Battle Scars are Holy.
So Run;
for all that you want,
for all that you wish,
for all you stand for,
and from all of your sins....
****************
Note: 'Elle' stands for hell in Latvian.
'Yoke' has many meanings, the ones being implied here are
⊙ A reference to something that is oppressive or restrictive.
⊙ An attack, especially by strangulation.
The general meaning being a contraption existing on shoulders (in clothes as shoulderpieces for humans and as wooden plough cross pieces in animals.)
