A While Back I Saw A Hozier Related Post About People Simplifying Hozier’s Lyrics And As An Example

A while back I saw a Hozier related post about people simplifying Hozier’s lyrics and as an example of songs that are actually just about naughty stuff they gave Butchered Tongue.

Butchered Tongue. The song SO clearly about Ireland being colonised and his relationship with the Irish language.

“As a young man blessed to pass so many road signs and have my foreign ear made fresh again on each unlikely sound” is him reading signs in Irish.

“The ears were chopped from young men if the pitch cap didn’t kill them. They are buried without scalp in the shattered bedrock of our home” Irish men being killed, having their ears cut of and having their scalp cut off.

Ireland is probably the only country in Europe that has been colonised. They have been fighting for their rights for centuries and you wanna write this song of as “just about sex”????

Writelbr and fantasy authors,, I am going to save your life (or at least a few hours of research). Lookup Johan Egerkrans, he is a Swedish author who has written three books (that I know of).

Dragons, a book about dragons from all around the world (mostly Scandinavian).

Vaesen, about creaturs from Scandinavian folklore and

Nordic Gods, about Nordic Mythology.

If you don't care about Scandinavian folklore or Nordic Mythology (which, understandable) I still recommend Dragons

“I still don’t think k!lling it with a pipe is right, that would make us worse than the dragon.” “Worse than the dragon?! K!lling a murderous, evil, child-eäting dragon with a pipe makes you as bad as the dragon?! Does k!lling a d!ctator by stäbbing them make you as bad as the d!ctator?! No! I don’t know about you, but child-eäting-anything is in the same category as d!ctators, humän träffickers, and släve öwners, and that category is called "people and things I would k!ll without a doubt"!” Everyone stared at him in horror, but he could not care less. The anger boiled in his blood and warmed him up.
