    The use of physical totems or repositories of power has always been central to the ritual process; there is a two-way flow of potential between the actor and the object, whereby the object, which has a certain mystical, semantic, ritual, etc. significance, makes its inherent power available to the wielder (who is esoterically worthy of it, ie., has prepared his environment and himself through acts of purification, defilement, arrangement, etc., such that he is in a state of eligibility of the fetish object), and at the same time through incantation, gesture, and the performance of prescribed rites the actor imbues the object at the center of the rite _with_ significance and indeed legitimizes it as an element within the ontology of the belief system in question.

lyrics

Souls of the vanquished
As mist fill the air
From the icy river
I raise my hands

The mountains cry to me
Great warrior, what have you done?
The river cleanses me
Unwoven, the blood gone

With each brittle, burning breath I take
My spirit shivers, dead
In the icy river
My life disappears

The blood washes away
The spirits come to claim their own
Great river, save me
Make me as cold and calm
As the snows, as the stars


Creeping icy fingers
Crawl hroughout my skin
One by one, taking the memories

Numb me, take me
Into your frigid heart
Surroundings melt away
The pupil dilates

No heat, no life
Naked soul, born of light
Lose yourself
In the cold

Swim through the river with me
My brother in night
Truest being
Naked soul

In the cold
Naked soul

And from the river, I rise
Heavy with flesh again
But light without that weight
Of the forbidden, of the blood
The mountains howl, but I do not hear
The spirits call, but I do not fear
I rise up from the icy river
And move back into the white
And move into the immaculate night
And move into the immaculate night
