My Days Are Numbered, Soon I Have To Leave

The Norns Have Stretched My Living Thread

The Notion Of My Demise Won't Leave Me Be

Why Cannot Death Just Set Me Free?



I've Lived A Life Of Prosperity

But I'm Not As Young As I Used To Be

Down The Road Waits Misery

Why Cannot Death Just Set Me Free?



Countless Armies Have I Attacked

Not Once Have I Backed Down

And Though I've Spilled A Lot Of Blood

I Never Once Received A Mortal Wound



I've Raided Shores In Many Lands

I Cannot Count The Men I've Killed

So Many Friends Died With Sword In Hand

But The Warrior's Death Was Never Granted Me



I Dress Myself In Battle Clothes

Alone I Make The Final Ride

My Sight Is Blurred By Whipping Snow

I Seek To End My Life



I Want To Walk Across The Rainbow Bridge

And See My Fathers In The Golden Hall

They Beckon Me To Join Their Feast

In My Dreams I Hear Their Call
