WAR!
The very first war of our
WORLD!
When the treacherous
Witch was killed
Three times burned
The three times born
By searing flames
Was Gullveig torn
DEATH!
Oden hurled his spear
Off with great
FORCE!
Deep into the great vana-fyrd
Battle horns
Gave up their sound
And Asgárd walls
Razed to the ground
The Vanir felt deceived
Hóne was a fool
Without Mimr at his side
Hóne could not rule
In a fit of violent rage
Mimr's blood was shed
And to Odin's court they sent
Mimr's severed head
TRUCE!
So a brittle and
Frail peace was
FORGED!
And to ensure
That the peace remained
Njord and Frej
To Asgárd came
And Hón' and Mim'
To Vanaheim
DEATH!
See the furious
Gods wanting
BLOOD!
Oden 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 hindrade det
Från att ruttna
Han kvad sedan
Trollsånger över det
Så att Mimr åter
Kunde tala till honom
The Vanir felt deceived
Hóne was a fool
Without Mimr at his side
Hóne could not rule
In a fit of violent rage
Mimr's blood was shed
And to Odin's court they sent
Mimr's severed head
[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

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
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

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
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 hearth
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
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
. . .

They speak of love and tolerance
But thrive of 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 a thousand years
They nurture prejudice and hate
Condemn the wars that they create
In the name of whatever god
They gladly sacrifice your lives
Increasing power is their prize
Without regrets they'll spill your blood
They're feeding you lies
With calculating smiles
Enslavement of the human mind
As long as you kneel to their authority
Religion is what makes you blind
They'll treating you as mindless fools
And use you as obedient tools
It's time to set your spirits free
This world we cannot tolerate
It's time to seal all preachers' fate
And let them swing from Oden's tree
Your mindes are restrained
Obedience is the chain
They've locked you up and thrown 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
Enslavement of the human mind
As long as you kneel to their authority
Religion is what makes you blind

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 await
Norsemen live without regrets
We accept our woven fate
So fearlessly we charge ahead
There is no time to hesitate
Don't despair, show no fear
Live you 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 he 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
So fearlessly we charge ahead
There is no time to hesitate
Don't despair, show no fear
Live you 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!
. . .

See him rise
From land of flames
Our destruction is at hand,
It is time to make a stand
Now I face, an 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
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
. . .

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
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
. . .

My head hurts like hell
Can't open my eyes
My clothes are all wet
And I'm freezing right through
Don't know where I am
Or how to get home
My arms feel so 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
SOMEBODY WAKE ME!
FROM THIS HORRIBLE DREAM!
SOMEBODY SAVE ME!
FROM THIS TERROR I FEEL!
I stumble around
On the soft muddy ground
I call out the name
Of the friends I can't find
But only the wind
And the ravens reply
With every gasp
With every breath
Smoke fills my lungs
And my intestines wrench
With every gasp
The sweet taste of death
The air is full of a thick
Pungent stench
So comes the rain
It's colder than ice
I wash off my face
And open my eyes
And then I see
But wish I were 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
SOMEBODY WAKE ME!
FROM THIS HORRIBLE DREAM!
SOMEBODY SAVE ME!
FROM THIS TERROR I FEEL!
NO ONE CAN SAVE ME!
FROM THIS HORRIBLE DREAM!
NO ONE CAN HEAR ME!
OR MY HEARTRENCHING
SCREAMS!

Conceived was I
From chaos and hate
Of malice, deceit and blood
And how would they know
My fate is to rise
Against the asagods
My being is full, full of a rage
An evil that can't be tamed
It darkens my soul
And blackens the blood
A fire that fills my veins
So how
Did I ever end up here?
Humiliated, broken and weak
I've waited
For a thousand years
To break these chains apart and
To finally break myself free
I bit the hand, off the mighty Tyr
When i couldn't, tare my ties
Now banished i dwell
A sword in my jaw
Awaiting the end of time
In darkness I drown
Consumed by my hate
Longing for revenge
Allfather will pay
For his deceit
At the battle
Of Ragnarök
A beast am I
So vicious and grim
They fear my mean
Grinning teeth
I bide my time
My sweet revenge
Soon my ties will fall
And finally i will by free
So 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
Conceived was I
From chaos and hate
Of malice, deceit and blood
And how would they know
My fate is to rise
Against the asagods
My being is full, full of a rage
An evil that can't be tamed
It darkens my soul
And blackens the blood
A fire that fills my veins
A beast am I
So vicious and grim
They fear my mean
Grinning teeth
I bide my time
My sweet revenge
Soon my ties will fall
And finally I will be
Finally break myself!
Finally I will be free!

The autumn clouds
Are caving in
And night comes
Crawling black as sin
Lightning strikes
And rain begins
A storm that tares my soul
I toss and twizzle in my bed
My thoughts are
Spinning in my head
Darkness nears
Soon I'll be dead
I'm losing all control
I spent my life
In foolish quest
For gold and riches
I'd contest
And now I'm left
With just regrets
To 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!
When time has come
For me to leave
WHEN!
When judgment's passed
Upon my life
WHEN!
A cold dark grave
Awaits 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!
And judgment's passed
Upon my life
NOW!
I will rest in my dark grave
WILL!
They speak my name
With reverence?

Too many slaves in this world
Die by torture and pain
Too many people do not see
They're killing themselves, going insane
Too many people do not know
Bondage is over the human race
They believe slaves are always lose
And this fear keeps them down
Watch the damned - God bless ya
They're gonna break the chains
No, you can't stop them - God bless ya
They're coming to get you
And then you'll get your balls to the wall, man
Balls to the wall
You'll get your balls to the wall, man
Balls to the wall - Balls to the wall
You may screw their brains
You may sacrifice them too
You may mortify their flesh
You may rape them all
One day the tortured stand up
And revolt against the evil
They make your drink your blood
And tear yourself to pieces
You better watch the damned - God bless ya
They're gonna break the chains
No, you can't stop them - God bless ya
They're coming to get you
And then you'll get your balls to the wall, man
Balls to the wall
You'll get your balls to the wall, man
Balls to the wall - Balls to the wall
Here we go!
Come on man, let's stand up all over the world
Let's plug a bomb in everyone's ass
If they don't keep us alive
We're gonna fight for the right
Build a wall with the bodies, and you're saved
Make the world scared
Come on, show me the sign of victory
Sign of victory - Sign of victory
You better watch the damned - God bless ya
They're gonna break the chains
No, you can't stop them - God bless ya
They're coming to get you
You'll get your balls to the wall, man
Balls to the wall
You'll get your balls to the wall, man
Balls to the wall - Balls to the wall
You'll get your balls to the wall, man
Balls to the wall
You'll get your balls to the wall, man
Balls to the wall
You'll get your balls to the wall, man

Wanna bite the hand that feeds me, wanna turn the tides
Set the demons free and watch 'em fly
Strike down the one who leads me, I'm gonna take his place
Gonna vindicate the human race
Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
Take the reins of power and seize them,
draw the battle lines
Armageddon's just a matter of time
Tear down the voice of reason, let the arrows fly
Your freedom's just a state of mind, yeah
Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
You better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
You better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
You better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
Better watch out 'cause I'm a war machine
I'm a war machine, I'm a war machine

Life is a waterfall,
we're one in the river,
and one again after the fall.
Swimming through the void
we hear the word,
we lose ourselves,
but we find it all...
Cause we are the ones that want to play,
always want to go,
but you never want to stay.
And we are the ones that want to choose,
always want to play,
but you never want to lose.
Aerials, in the sky,
when you lose small mind,
you free your life.
Life is a waterfall,

always want to go,

And we are the ones that want to choose,

Aerials, in the sky,

you free your life.
Aerials, so up high,
when you free your eyes,
eternal prize.
