Alice In Chains - Down In A Hole In Old English (Bardcore/Medieval style)

"When they performed this at Ragnar's execution, It was kinda awkward but the scene later at Ælla's palace's unplugged session was surreal from what I heard"

Ok, this was probably the hardest cover I have ever attempted, the combination of Layne and Jerry's vocals are some of the hardest and most divine melodies and harmonies I have ever heard. Lemme know if ya liked it :)

Lyrics

Bere mec sōfte innan wambe
Bury me softly in a womb
Iċ ġife dǣl mīn for þē
I give a part of me for you
Sand rīneð and hēr iċ sitte
Sand rains and here I sit
Healde þās blōstman under grunde, ġeblōwende
I'm holding these flowers under ground, in bloom


Niðer in sċræfe, iċ nāt nā ġif þǣr sī mē hǣl
Down in a hole, I don't ever know if there's salvation for me
Seoh mīn brēost þe iċ ġehyrste swilċe hrǣw
See my heart which I decorated like a corpse
La nis þē wel ġecūð þe hēo woldon mec tellan him tō
You're not familiar with who they used to think of me as
Hāwa mīn nū, iċ eom wer sē mec bysgað mid wān
Look at me now, I'm a man who busies myself with woe


Niðer in sċræfe, mæġen iċ næbbe
Down in a hole, I have no power
Niðer in sċræfe, ferð in ġefealle
Down in a hole, soul is in fall
Iċ wolde flēogan, ac mīne feðra man ǣr tōslāt
I'd like to fly, but they already ripped my wings up


Niðer in sċræfe, and hēo setton þā stānas in stede
Down in a hole, and they put the stones in place
Iċ ǣt þā sunne, and sē smæcc wæs forbyrned mid glēde
I ate the sun, and the taste was burned away with a flame
Iċ eom lā gyltiġ þæt þā tēð iċ mē tōslēah
I really am guilty of smashing my own teeth up
Iċ nille sprecan nā mā mīne wilmas unhēan
I will speak no more my lowly feelings

Iċ wille wesan innan þē
I want to be inside of you

Niðer in sċræfe, mæġen iċ næbbe
Down in a hole, I have no power
Niðer in sċræfe, ferð in ġefealle
Down in a hole, soul is in fall
Niðer in sċræfe, mæġen iċ næbbe
Down in a hole, I have no power
Niðer in sċræfe, wēde in helle
Down in hole, I'm mad in hell
