lyrics

Auspicious birth
The stars were aligned
Heralding the end
Of a troubling time
Legend fortells
Of a warrior most brave
Who'd become the king
Of the land he'd sworn to save

Many foes would cross his path
All would feel the bite of his wrath
None could withstand this overwhelming force
Nor lead him astray once he'd set his course

One for honor
Strength and glory
Carved on these runestones
His epic story
One for war
Victory and peace
Carved on these runestones
His legacy
One for each warrior
Who fought by his side
Carved on these runestones
Their deeds glorified
One for Valhalla
One for Hel
Carved on these runestones
The names of who fell

He ruled his kingdom
With a tempered hand
His forces swept
Across the land
To unite
Sworn enemies
Under one banner
To forge a lasting peace

Drenched in blood
We prevail
To march on
And fall another day

To fight
To die
To live again
We rise from the grave
Each time that he beckons

We are bond by our duty
To stand by his side
Through the magic of these runestones
Our bodies are revived
We repeat the cycle
Each time that we die
We fight on courageously
Staring death right in the eye
