This seems to be focused around the Æsir—Vanir War. Mimir & Hænir were the two Asagods sent over to Vanaheim. This is also the start of Odin's quest for knowledge possibly.
"Odin took the head, and anointed it with herbs
which prevents it from rotting
He sang his magic songs over it
So that MÃmir be able to speak to him"
And Mimir was a god of knowledge, so the Mimir's Head was giving him consult, as well as giving him secret knowledge.
Also, I think there's a few Lyric problems.
it's "The Vanir failed to see, Hœnir was a fool, Without Mimir at his side, Hænir could not rule."
There are also a few other pieces I THINK might be wrong but I have no idea.
Actually, the lyrics are correct. I bought the cd a few months ago. I think that with this phrase "The vanir felt decieved" Johan tries to explain that when Mimir was not around, Höne always replied "now let others give their advice", because Mimir was the wise one, and Höne was not prepared to rule and think by himself.
