1. War Of The Gods War, the very first war of our world, When the treacherous witch was killed Three times burned and three times born, By searing flames was Gullveig torn. Death, Odin hurled his spear off with great force Deep into the great vana-fyrd battle horns gave up their sound And Asgard walls razed to the ground. The Vanir felt deceived Höne was a fool without Mímir at his side Höne could not rule In a fit of violent rage Mímir's blood was shed and to Odin's court they sent Mímir's severed head Truce, so a brittle and frail peace was forged And to ensure that the peace remained. Njordr and Freyr to Asgard came and Hön' and Mim to Vanaheim Death, see the furious gods wanting blood, Odin knew that a raging war would not bring them any gain Just leave a black and bitter stain. Odin tog huvudet och smorde det med örter som hindrar det från att ruttna han kvad sedan trollsånger över det så att Mimer åter kunde tala till honom [English translation:] Odin took the head, and anointed it with herbs which prevents it from rotting he sang his magic songs over it so that Mimer be able to speak to him The Vanir felt deceived Höne was a fool without Mímir at his side Höne could not rule In a fit of violent rage Mímir's blood was shed and to Odin's court they sent Mímir's severed head 2. Töck's Taunt - Loke's Treachery Part II You come to me, eyes full of grief you ask of me to shed all my tears to let him return from kingdom of fears Why should I weep? or lose any sleep? He never brought me pleasure or glee so why would I help to set Balder free You come to me,eyes full of grief all of your tears mean nothing to me so why will you not just leave me to be am I to blame? Well, I'm not ashamed! Oh how I smiled when I heard the tale Of Loke the sly, so clever and brave Höder the fool,Lopt's willing tool he held the twig that cut Balder's skin Lopt aimed the shot that killed Höder's twin leave me alone don't come here and moan I've never wished to see Balder's well so let his soul remain down in hel My name is Töck and I won't cry I won't let Balder return Let hel keep her treasured prize let his soul forever burn You come to me and cannot believe that this old crow now talking to you is Loke not Töck you bloody dawn fools you come to me and you do not see all of your tears mean nothing to me why will you not just leave me to be [solo: Mikkonen] My name is Töck,and I won't cry I won't let Balder return Let hel keep her treasured prize let his soul forever burn 3. Destroyer Of The Universe I rise up from muspelheim My fury is sublime The sword I bring burns violently With wild and lethal flames I march against the asagods To bring the end of time I am pure and endless pain And Surtur is my name See me rise, the mighty Surt Destroyer of the universe Bringer of flames and endless hurt Scorcher of men and earth [Solo: Södenberg] Swordless frej with horn in hand Rises to his final stand He doesn't stand a single chance I'll split his living corpse in half And yet he stabbed me in the eye He drove the horn in deep The overwhelming, raging pain Is driving me insane The waves of flames that I've unleashed will eat us all alive The rage that burns within my heart Is uncontrolled and wild And now everything shall die! Massive waves consume us all, the ocean is released Our dying world quakes underneath And sinks into the sea And now nothing will survive! Extinction waits for everyone For gods and men alike When all are gone of the old world A new one will arise [Solo: Södenberg] See me rise, the mighty Surt Destroyer of the universe Bringer of flames and endless hurt Scorcher of men and earth See me die, the mighty Surt Destroyer of the universe Drowning in waves that floods the earth The beginning, of a new rebirth 4. Slaves Of Fear They speak of love and tolerance They prey on people's ignorance To make you all Slaves of fear They feed on your anxiety To build their gent society They kept you down for 1000 years They nurture prejudice and hate To them the wars that they create In the name of one ample god They gladly sacrifice your life Increasing power is their price Without regrets, they'll spill your blood They're feeding you lies With calculating smiles With slaves made of the human mind As long as you kneel to their authority Religion, it's what makes you blind They'll treat all you as mindless fools They use you as obedient tools It's time to set your spirit free This world we cannot tolerate It's time to seal all preachers fate We looked ahead from Odin's grave Your lives are a strain of egotistic chains They locked you up and threw away the key Your souls are for sale, and you're the ones who pay But still, you'll never be set free They're feeding you lies With calculating smiles With slaves made of the human mind As long as you kneel to their authority Religion, it's what makes you blind 5. Live Without Regrets From birth we're taught how to survive We're taught how war is waged And there are no men now alive Who stops our wild rampage Light at heart we bide our bane whatever death awaits! Norsemen live without regrets We accept our woven fates So fearlessly we charge ahead There is no time to hesitate Don't despair, show no fear Live your life without regrets Don't despair and show no fear In the face of a certain death A coward thinks he'll always live If it keeps himself from strife Old age leaves no rest and peace though spears may spare his life We don't mourn a friend that fell or dread the day we'll fall ourselves Warriors don't go to Hel 'cause we know Ygg will greet us well! Fearlessly we charge ahead There is no time to hesitate Don't despair, show no fear Live your life without regrets Don't despair and show no fear In the face of a certain death So raise your horns to those who died Let's drink to fallen friends tonight Let's celebrate their glory life We'll meet again in Valhall when we die When we die! When we die! 6. The Last Stand Of Frej See him rise, from land of flames our destruction is at hand. It is time to make stand now I face, and awesome foe I will always stand my ground To this end my fate is bound! This fight is mine and mine alone and there's no help from anyone! His wrath burns! With insane heat all his fury is unleashed there is no way to defeat! The forces and the power that he wields My hand holds the horn so firm I am calm and ready to die Everything around me burns And I know that I will not survive See him rise from land of flames in this wild and barren land I will make my final stand My death awaits, I have no fear To this end my fate is bound though I'm doomed I'll stand my ground! This fight is mine and mine alone and there's no help from anyone! [Solo: Simon Solomon] I go forth to meet my doom but I will die in vain perdition waits for everyone The world will die in flames With all my strength I run the horn deep into his eye And as he swings his burning sword I die with a tired smile! [Solo: Simon Solomon] 7. For Victory Or Death Time! has come to wash our shame away to erase the image of defeat We! have licked our wounds,restored our strength and our vengeance will be oh so sweet They thought they had us down that we'd never rise again they will learn that they were deadly wrong what's owed will be repaid Again we'll feed the wolves and then vengeance will be ours we'll split their skulls and spill their guts upon the frozen ground Yeah,we'll never kneel again not to deity nor men now they'll taste our bitter hate what's owed will be repaid So raise the flag once more and the eagle will be fed once again we march to war for victory or death They arrived with talk of hvitekrist by force they wanted us to kneel with their swords held to our throats they preached but we will make them pay we'll take their lives away [solo: Mikkonen] So Raise! raise the flag once more in the east the eagle will be fed March! again we march to war we will march for victory or death Pain! the pain and suffering is but a bleak and distant fading dream Shame! our disgrace; a withering thought finally our names will be redeemed 8. Wrath Of The Norsemen My head hurts like hell Can't open my eyes My clothes are all wet And are freezing right through Don't know where I am Or how to get home My muscles are numb And it's hard to get up My muscles they ache With every move I stand on my feet But my knees feel so weak [Chorus:] Somebody wake me From this horrible dream Somebody save me From this terror and pain I stumble around, on the soft, bloody ground I call out the names, of the friends I can't find ??? And the ravens that fly With every gasp, with every breath smoke fills my lungs, ??? With every gasp, the sweet taste of death The urge for more, a thick Viking stench [Solo] Snow comes then rain, it's colder than ice I wash off my face, and open my eyes And then I see, but which I was blind They are all dead, there's blood everywhere The Norsemen they left, only death and despair A stench of flesh, that fills the Autumn air [Chorus:] Somebody wake me From this horrible dream Somebody save me From this terror and pain No one can save me From this horrible dream No one can hear me Or my heart-wrenching screams 9. A Beast Am I Concealed aside ?? ?? And how will they know I, Fenris arise Against the Asa-gods My being is full Full of a rage An evil that can't be tamed It darkens my soul And blackens my blood A fire that fills my veins So how Did I ever end up here Humiliated, broken, and weak I waited for a thousand years to break these chains apart and to finally break myself free ??? of the mighty??? but I couldn't tear my ties ?? ?? awaiting the end of time In darkness I drown Consumed by my hate Running for revenge Allfather will pay 'fore he succeeds At the winter of Ragnar k A beast am I So viciously ??? They fear my ??????? I bide my time my sweet revenge Soon my task will unfold And finally I will be free When you hear me howling You'll know that I have come for you When you hear me call your name Your life will end in nameless pain [Solo] Concealed aside For??? ?? And how will they know I, Fenris arise Against the Asa-gods My being is full Full of a rage An evil that can't be tamed It darkens my soul And blackens my blood A fire that fills my veins A beast am I So viciously ??? They fear my ??????? I bide my time my sweet revenge Soon my task will unfold And finally I will be Finally break myself Finally I will be free 10. Doom Over Dead Man The autumn clouds are caving in And night comes crawling, black as sin Lightning strikes, and rain begins A storm that tears my soul I toss and tumble in my bed My thoughts are spinning in my head Darkness nears, soon I'll be dead I'm losing all control I've spent my life in foolish quests for gold and riches, I confess And now I'm left with just regrets Too late to change my ways My life, it seems, has slipped away I leave no legacy to praise Nothing more for me to say My life has been a waste When! My time has come for me to leave When! When judgment's passed upon my life When! A cold dark grave will wait for me Will! Will my name live endlessly? When! My time has come for me to leave When! When judgment's passed upon my life When! A cold dark grave will wait for me Will! Will my name live endlessly? So I die But won't be mourned Broken and alone I wish that I were never born So I die and won't be missed No rune stone will be raised As my body rots away Die! All friends and cattle pass away Die! And death will come for every man Die! But I know one thing never dies Doom! The sentence passed upon the dead Now! The time has come for me to leave Now! When judgement's passed up on my life Now! Now I will rest in my dark grave Will! They speak my name with reverence? My life has been a waste No rune stone will be raised So I die, but won't be mourned I wish that I were never born I rest here in my shallow grave As my body rots away 11.
