Jenny of Oldstones


Det andra avsnittet av Game of Thrones sista och åttonde säsong bjöd på den fantastiskt fina låten Jenny of Oldstones, i eftertexterna framförd av Florence +The Machine. Just nu cirkulerar det många olika teorier om vad texten betyder och vilken betydelse allt kommer få i den stora striden mot The Night King, men jag har enbart fastnat i orden och känslorna de ger mig. Det blir inte så mycket vackrare än det här.


High in the halls of the kings who are gone
Jenny would dance with her ghosts
The ones she had lost and the ones she had found
And the ones who had loved her the most

The ones who'd been gone for so very long
She couldn't remember their names
They spun her around on the damp old stones
Spun away all her sorrow and pain

And she never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave

They danced through the day
And into the night through the snow that swept through the hall
From winter to summer then winter again
Til the walls did crumble and fall

And she never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave
And she never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave
Never wanted to leave, never wanted to leave

High in the halls of the kings who are gone
Jenny would dance with her ghosts
The ones she had lost and the ones she had found
And the ones
Who had loved her the most
