5. Valkyries Ride
Soon a new day will be spawned
Scattered fires glow
Soon first blood will be drawn
And dying ambers glow
They await the suns first rays
Anticipation running high
The Norns are counting numbered days
Hear the war-cry rise
See the Valkyries ride!
See the Valkyries ride!
They meet upon this hallowed field
Now the end is near
Two armies not about to yield
The smell of death in the air
This field has served as battle ground
Since the dawn of this world
Through the years a lot of blood
Has been poured into this earth
Warrior's eyes full of purest rage
Steel cutting flesh
Spilling guts and severing heads
Sending men to their death
Ride, ride, ride Valkyries
Ride, ride, ride Valkyries
The screams of dying men
The comfort in their eyes
Here they come, by Oden sent
See the Valkyries ride
Fallen men lie all around
Their dead eyes look to the sky
And as the swordplay rambles on
They see the Valkyries ride
7. Arson
They came riding at first light
Fifty men armed to the teeth
The sounding horn called us out to fight
We went to meet them with our steel
Outnumbered yet we fought
But soon we were overrun
We took refuge in our home
Our downfall had just begun
They attacked our home, we kept them out
Defending ourselves with spear and bow
We took them out one by one
As the rising autumn sun glowed
There was twenty dead on each side
