Twilight of the Gods

There is a serpent in every Eden Slick as grease and cold as ice There is a lie in every meaning Rest assured to fool you twice In this age of utter madness We maintain we are in control And ending life before deliverance While countries are both bought and sold Holy writtings hokus-pokus Blaze of glory and crucifix Prepried costly credit salvations TV-preachers and dirty tricks Don't trust nobody It will cost you much too much Beware of the dagger It caress you at first touch O, all small creatures It is the twilight of the gods When the foundations to our existence Begins to crumble one by one And legislations protects its breakers And he who was wrong but paid the most won Even the gods of countless religions Holds no powers against this tide Of degeneration because we have now found That there is no thrones up there in the sky Run from this fire It will burn your very soul Its flames reaching higher Comed this far there is no hold O, all small creatures It is the twilight of the gods [Twilight of the gods Twilight of the gods Twilight of the gods Twilight of the gods]

[For as long as the grass grows For as long as the stream flows And the sun shines down unto those For how long the wind blows And the sky is blue above us] O, I am a man and I hold in my hand my fate Free as the wind as if even I had wings that carried me Still in the middle of the night Even I will need light to guide me So I turn my face to the sky from Where he with one eye is watching over me My fathers' gods - I ride for you My fathers' gods - I fight for you My fathers' gods - I die for you My fathers' gods - I am coming through to you My fathers' gods - I am yours Through blood by thunder Sound of wings in the air and His ravens fly near to lead me So I will not fail to ride down the trail Long time destined for me Long before I was born O, can you not see it is all Carved in the tree of fate That a son of the north must forfill His destined course to Follow the bond of blood [Bond of blood Bond of blood Bond of blood Bond of blood Bond of blood Bond of blood Bond of blood Bond of blood Bond of blood Bond of blood]

O, so it is written son When all waters and land you see All around came to birth Man and beast was one And the gods of the sky Walked the face of the earth Few free and innocent Man strolled paths next to those Of beasts seeing no signs But stars in the sky Knowing of day and night Of rain and winds, hunger and fright But not of death nor of life While all was at ease with all Living creatures and beast and the gods of the sky enjoyed the lavish riches of this world, giants rose out of their caves and took to the skies challenging the gods for the power of the universe. Only when the great halls of Valhalla stood aflame lighting up the worlds all around did the gods wake up from their drunken sleep, to speed through the heavens and clash with the giants in the greatest battle ever seen. Heads arms and legs of both giant and god fell down upon the earth and... The weapons... The swords of shining metal... And those who found them and took these shining blades in hand were only men, now man was the master of this world. The story tells of stormy skies [sings: raging winds] Black clouds gathered up high And of lightning striking from a Burning bloodred sky The mountains crumbled to the seas Earth shook the worlds collide Ending the age of gods Giving birth to our time And man lived and learned The secret of steel Ore of earth - fire of sky Forged is blade of gods Blood and iron Blood and iron Blood and iron Blood and iron Blood and iron Blood and iron Blood and iron Blood and iron So the age to learn and to teach for man begins, the power to know the blood and iron discipline, and tell the story of how man was granted these shining blades of steel Knowing of the past she will know of the tomorrow and man shall reign, yes, even conquer other worlds and she will set sails on her starships sailing across the black space and become the new gods of the skies. [The skies... the skies... the skies... the skies... the skies... the skies... the skies...] Blood and iron.

In great numbers we advance before dawn By the great hail this great fight is born Among the clouds now our black wings fills the air No more frontlines the holy battle is everywhere Though death may await me on the battlefield I die to go on but by the great hail I will go, I am marching under the runes Countless victories we fight side by side Deep down in the oceans on land and way up in the sky Comed this far now there is no way back or return If we do withdraw the horizon will seem to burn Though death now is closing in on me I die to go on but by the great hail I will go, I am fighting under the runes Standing here now amidst the hell we have made All signs of a wonder or to survive now seems to fade But I am a fighter and I still have my pride They are gonna have to kill, by my own hand I refuse to die Though now death is all that awaits me I die to go on but by the great hail I will go I am dying under the runes

Father who are in the sky Hold thy hand above me Mighty is the raging waves On which I ride Mother who awaits me ashore Let your golden hair down It will shine and guide me Through the [raging] storm Heading north after long a journey We have sailed for so very long Heavy seas endless sky above us Heading north going home Brother who fell in foreign land Blessed thy soul a warriors Living on through your sword Now in my hand Sister who for my return sings Shed no more tears for my well I can hear your voice clear now In the wind Heading north after long a journey We have sailed for so very long Heavy seas endless sky above us Heading north going home Heading north after long a journey We have sailed for so very long Heavy seas endless sky above us Heading north going home Heading north after long a journey We have sailed for so very long Heavy seas endless sky above us Heading north going home Heading north after long a journey We have sailed for so very long Heavy seas endless sky above us Heading north going home

Now that the wind called my name And my star had faded now hardly a glimpse up in the empty space And the wise one-eyed great father in the sky stilled my flame For the ones who stood me near And you few who were me dear I ask of thee to have no doubts and no fears For when the great clouds fills the air And the thunder roars from o, so far away up in the sky Then for sure you will know that I have reached the joyous hall up high With my bloodbrothers at side All sons of father with one eye We were all born in the land of the blood on ice And now you all who might hear my song Brought to you by the northern wind have no fear Though the night may seem so everlasting and forever dark There will come a golden dawn At ends of nights for all yee on whom Upon the northstar always shines The vast gates to hall up high Shall stand open wide and welcome you with all its within And Oden shall hail us bearers of a pounding hammerheart
