1. NORTHMEN

Mighty men
From the north
Fought invaders
With their swords
Smashed the cross
Hammer of Thor

Odin's eye
Be their guide
Crush their foes
Eat their hearts
You will see them
In Valhalla

Northmen
Marching on
To slay invaders
Who came from beyond

Mighty men
From the north
Fought for kin
And for Thor


2. BROADSWORD

Beneath the soil of this land
Is the blood of our fathers
The blood of our kin
Within the steel of our blades
Is the strength of the gods
Erupting with hate
The odal rune is Odin's sign
Guide our swords
And clear our minds
Sometimes in battle we may lose our lives
But honor and valor will always survive

We wield our swords
And raise them to the sky
Be not slowed by flesh or bone
As you claim another life
We wield our swords
In the name of Tyr
Blood flows forth from fallen foes
Our enemies will run in fear

Pushing my sword up to the hilt
As tears mix with blood
We are crushing their will
Once they are dead, chop off their head
A mountain of gore
Now lies at our feet
Thurisaz, The Giants' sign
Guide our swords
And free our minds
Sometimes in battle we may lose our lives
But honor and valor will always survive

We wield our swords
And raise them to the sky
Be not slowed by flesh or bone
As you claim another life
We wield our swords
In the name of Tyr
Blood flows forth from fallen foes
Our enemies will run in fear


3. THE IRON SHIELD

You trace his movement
Don't take him alive
His boots kick up the dust
His blood sprays warm and dark

You can feel blade hit bone
Now strike!
Take a glimpse at the fear
In his eyes!

Make a killing then run and hide
It's a vicious cycle
This is how you live your life
Bottom dweller can you spare some time?

You are a predator
Now recoil and strike!

You hide behind the iron shield
In life and in battle


4. INTO THE VORTEX

Bound in flesh
It cloaks dark secrets
Concealed within the blackest forest
Released by wicked utterance
Cursed spirits shall torment the living

To reverse the devastation
Slender hopes reside within
Recitation in the vile tongue
A sinister irony

Dark spirits are enveloped
By the irresistible, churning vortex
No beast or man shall elude its potent grasp

Deposited in foreign lands
And epoch unfamiliar
While the peril are not
A journey to the grave to be freed


5. TO PLUNDER

Assemble the minions
Prepare the longships
Our voyage begins
To traverse the north

For land, for glory
For blood, for pride

Taking their women
Destroying their lives!

Our longships arrive
On the eastern shore

Our men possess strength
Driven by Thor

To call us to battle
The ram's horn sounds
Their blood shall be shed
It covers the ground

Slashing and burning
And stealing their gold
Enslaving children
Each one shall be sold

By the sign of Thor
We'll take this village
By the power of Odin
To plunder, to pillage


6. COMMANDER

Onto the battlefield
Into the lions' jaws

Into the depths of Hel
Into the blades of swords
Einherjer rise
And ride from the north

Command me

Into the depths of Hel
Into the blades of swords
Einherjer rise
And ride from the north

O great allfather
I will follow you into everlasting torment
Command me, O master
And we will live in the great hall forever.
Valhalla...yes, Valhalla!

Arise to the tower of guard
Unto your death!

Destiny, the end of my life
Destiny, for my kin I fight
Destiny, I know might makes right


7. GINNUNGAGAP

Deep within Nifelheim
The realm of eternal ice
From the frozen wasteland
Eleven rivers rise

From the border of Muspel
With its pervasive flame
From the seeming emptiness
The giant Ymir came

Ginnungagap
Ginnungagap
Ginnungagap
The primordial void


8. EYE OF FIRE

Upon the plains of Gorgoroth
In the desolate wastelands of Mordor
The lord of abomination cast his gaze
Upon the keepers of the ring
His gaze fixed on the prize
The lord shall rule the world
And subjugate the race of men

The mightiest of the Maiar
The darkest of the beasts
Once cast a spell of fear upon
The elves of Nargothrond

Eye of fire
Sauron's desire

The council of Elrond
Chose the path
To cast the accursed ring
Into the fires at last
The lidless eye sits transfixed
Atop Barad-Dur
They must reach Amon Amarth
If they want to settle the score

Eye of fire
Eye of fire
Eye of fire


9. GOTTERDAMMERING

10. CHAIN MAIL

Prepare yourself for battle
The nightmare has begun
Grab the shirt of steel
And place it on your chest
The clink of metal links
Is music to your ears
The weapons you command
The sum of all his fears

Your armor's just too strong
His sword breaks on your chest
You'll stab him in the heart
And slice him in the neck
You'll take his fucking eye
You'll fight him to the death
Hack him into bits
Until there's nothing left

To avoid a battle death
A warrior must be wise
Chain mail upon your chest
It comes as no surprise

A warrior rides through the night
Over the mountainside
Armor gleaming in the moonlight
He will not die tonight
He will slaughter!

Chain mail! Slaughter!


11. GOD SLAYER

Evolution, a novel concept
Realism sets the stage at last
Retribution for the years of creation
You're no longer blinded by faith

You are God slayer
You are God killer

Finally, you have thrown their book
Into the trash
And prepared for your mind's rebirth

You are God slayer
You are God killer

Jehovah, hear this!
You will not survive
Truth and knowledge
Have exposed the lies

We will not move backwards anymore
And your martyrs have heard the lions roar
As we cry out, "God is dead!"

Jesus Christ is finished
God is vanquished
God slayer
