The Mechanisms
Ragnarok V: End Of The Line (Live)
[Spoken Intro: Lyfrassir]
"At the front of the train, Loki emerges. She is fled by the things she passes, who recognise one touched by the outer gods. She finds Sigyn kneeling, collapsed in despair. And they embrace. With tears flowing freely, Loki explains what they have to do. They cannot stop what they have touched from following them through into our world, but they can delay it. Keep the train on the track as long as possible. Together."
[Verse 1: Loki, Sigyn, Both]
There’s been so little time to share
We’ve always had our loads to bear
I won’t forget
I won’t leave you
This time, this time
[Spoken Interlude: Lyfrassir]
"Loki lies on the altar after uncoupling the carriages, and Sigyn pushes a single line into her wife's heart and holds it there. All she lets through is a drip drip drip, flowing through the glyphs and gears. When her heartsblood is gone, the train will arrive, but until then, they are together. Through the pain, Loki kisses Sigyn."
[Verse 2: Sigyn, Loki, Both]
Goodbye my love, yet shed no tears
The lives we've shared have brought us here
I will stay by your side
I’ll hold on through
This time, this time
