Lyrics

As the shadows fall upon me And the clouds black out the sun The great heathen army stands before me Clashing their shields and baring their blades Whispers of madness, the demons come for us The light of God truly has decayed The sons of Ragnar, here for bloody vengeance The hateful children come to play The king is dead Taken by the pagan Sacrificed to heathen gods The blood eagle screaming Down into a pit of snakes A devil's game torn asunder As the dead litter the ground And my brothers lie bloody before me The demons come, wicked and sinful The great heathen army falls forth Come at the boneless, stained with crimson flesh As the city walls crumble before me The devil's legions have taken all we have Your cries for God empty echoes heard by none The king is dead Taken by the pagan Sacrificed to heathen gods The blood eagle screaming Down into a pit of snakes A devil's game torn asunder As we march through the heathen lands of Wessex Thunder claps in the sky as it darkens above us Our gods are with us Thor cries a battle cry in the heavens Odin strikes his mighty fist, summoning us to war We march for victory, for death We march for vengeance for our fallen king
