Dreams of Fimbulwinter
04:29
|
|||
As I walk through the snow
my dreams come back to me
flowing like Hvergelmir
three winters cut like the axe
tear from me my warmth and life
death, is coming
I write this story in the runes
for all eternity
the words of the gods
take heed my fellow man
for these events will come to pass
soon all will fear
I hear the screams of man and beast
as loki boards his ship
surtr comes from muspelheim to spread
his fires throughout the nine
destruction of the gods will come
fighting in vain as my dream has told
yggdrasil trembles at once
as fenrir swallows the sun
There can be no safety from this end
the norns have woven fate
the snows have fallen on the ground
for three winters now
I wait for the horn to blow
to summon the gods from their halls
the great battle of Ragnarok
will soon come to pass
I write these words in the runes
to tell the story of my dreams
etched in stone for all time
for all midgard to see
take heed my brothers of the gods
for I have seen it with my eyes
the serpent rises from the waves
midgard will sink beneath the sea

Runes of Death
04:31
|

I rise
my hammer by my side
i know my death is near
it is written
lightning strikes
with each mighty blow
the serpent lashes out
venom courses
Written in the runes my death is told
how the mighty serpent conquered Thor
I fall
to my knees my blood
coursing through my veins
soon I'll die
I lay
mighty mjolnir down
the symbol of my might
it is done
my rage and anger are no more
in the runes of death my story told
I crack the skies with my hammer
lightning streaks across the sky
the waves churn beneath my feet
the midgard serpent with feel my wrath
I swing mjolnir with all my might
He will sink beneath the waves
and I will die

In the Writhing Depths
05:18
|
|||
the serpent rises from the waves
the ocean roars the mountains quake
venom pours from the sky
the great battle will soon be nigh
in the writhing depths
jormungand rises up again
to do battle with thor
to bring the end to our world
mjolnir's lightning
courses through the sky
venom from the serpent
rains down, all will die
Strangling the earth
his body quivers with each breath
lokis son, enemy of the hammer
gnashing teeth will reign in my dreams forever
midgard serpent, you foe of old
rise from the depths, your fate is told
meet your end with a hammer crushed skull
your work is done here, return to the cold
Loki's son, your story is written
in the runes of mighty odin
your venom has poisoned all life
your rage and anger, bringer of Ragnarok

With watchful eyes
gazing across the lands
heimdall ponders
the gods demise
With a mighty breath
his lips press against
the mighty gjallarhorn
resounds the sound of death
I hear a mighty clashing
I hear the raven cry
I hear the crack of thunder
under a burning sky
The rainbow bridge cracks
under the giants weight
the sound of the horn blowing
arise and meet your fate
the sound of death
heavy in the air
as the giants march
onward to Vigrid
The Jotnar gather
with an army of the dead
Loki and his son
bring the song of despair
Yggdrasil trembles
alfather rides
his mighty warriors
Gungnir by his side
the clash of arms
will soon begin
as fenrir opens his mouth
to start the end

Surtr
03:55
|
|||
the fires growing still
his sword of fire instills
fear in the hearts of men
there is no safety in the end
from muspelheim he comes
blazing sword weapon of choice
to raze the world and sink below
then die in turn his fate be told
Surtr
rain your fires down upon the world
destroy
midgard dies as it slowly burns
the twilight
of the gods has come to pass
your fate
is sealed as we burn to ash
the vanir meets the flame
without weapons he fights in vain
for skirnir has his sword to slay
Surtr's fire will burn Freyr's life away
as the giant tramples the ground
his fires spread throughout the nine
vicious battle Freyr begins to fight
fighting like a beast freyr takes... surtr's... eye
in battle locked to death
the vanir draws his dying breath
consumed by fire and burned to ash
his body gone his life has passed
without his eye to see
the giant falls down to his knees
his fate is sealed as Norns have said
the world will burn as Surtr... meets his death
Ragnarok is coming
surtr will come from muspelheim
brandishing his flaming sword
he will do battle
with the god freyr
and freyr will kill him
are you ready
for ragnarok

Fires of a Dying World
04:15
|
|||
Fires, whip through the sky
Blackened smoke floats through the air
The sound of thunder fills my ears
The crying screams of despair
The end is now come for us all
fires burn my soul, alas valhall
my body burns my eyes now see
the worlds burning beneath the tree
The crumbling land sinks beneath the waves
all life burns beneath surtr's fires
ginnungagap will reign again
only two escape this fate
