The Birth of Destruction
08:22
|
|
||
Upon the Dawn of a cold day
the ice freezes the earth
Blood Drips to open waters
Crimson colors stain the ground
The time has come foretold
The winds carry the screams
To the gods high in the hall
A prophecy comes full circle
The serpent arrives coiled
Biting its tail in wait
The wolf arrives Snarling
Chained to The ground
Hel arrives covered in the
Bloodied ice from the ground
The birth of destruction
Times three

Once Above, Cast Below
08:08
|
|
||
Raised in secret through
the land of the giants
A vision of foretold chaos
Reaches the halls of gods
Disaster prophesied
Times three
The spawn of a Giant & trickster
Gods gathered the three
To be exiled from these high walls
The serpent cast down
To the ocean all surrounding
The wolf too fierce
Chained for eternity
Hel is cast to the fog
Through the Gates of nifleheim
Her throne awaits

Where Hatred Dwells
04:30
|
|
||
Cast out and forgotten now
The three await
In the darkness of their dwellings
Evil grows within them
The serpent lays below
Coiled beneath the seas
Moving ever slowly
Biting his own tail
The wolf snarls in chains
Made from unbreakable steel
The beast is growing fierce
Bite the hand that feeds
Hel sits at her throne
Collecting the forgotten souls
Of thee unworthy fallen
Un-dead legion grows
Cast out and forgotten now
the three await
in the shadows of there dwelling
Evil grows within them
The serpent lays below
Coiled beneath the seas
Moving ever slowly
Biting his own tail
Cast out and forgotten now
Fires burn below
Higher realms will soon fear
As prophecies come full
Cast out and forgotten now
Fires burn below
cast out and forgotten
this is where hatred dwells
The wolf snarls in chains
Made from unbreakable steel
The beast is growing restless
Bite the hand that feeds
Hel sits at her throne
Collecting the forgotten souls
of thee unworthy fallen
Thee undead legion grows

Mourning Star
06:27
|
|
||
Vivid dreams of passing
within the night
Seeing the forthcoming demise
Of his own soul
The deception of the trickster
To steer in thee events
By his own brothers hand
He will fall to a silent death
A spear made of
The unknown plant
Designed to do harm
To the shiny god
The weapon given
To his sightless brother
Who hurls it through
The wind towards him
Grief through out the land
Engulfed in despair
his body placed upon
the burning dragon ship
Suicide as tears
fall across the flames
The ship is set to sail
the oceans once again
The sky burns colored red
as the world begins to shake
fire rains from the sky
The serpents now awake
The oceans start to boil
the worlds start to fall
the beginning of the end
the death of it all

Towards the Gates of Hel
06:25
|
|
||
The Warriors are called to arms
A call that echoes through the land
A place earned in the higher realms
For the favored one that rides the path
Sent on a journey to find the fallen
To confront the vixen of hel
To release the god from her darkened grasp
But only if despair floods the lands
Everything dead and living shall grieve
Only then will the curse come undone
A giantess refuses to let, the tears fall
Sealing the fate of an enslaved god
Ragnarok is now taking their hands
Let hel forever hold what she has

Prophecies of the End
08:12
|
|
||
The sun igniting in the sky
Embers burning at horizon
Rain cracks open the ground
Legions pour from the open wounds
Chaos spreads throughout the land
An image painted with black
And crimson colors clash
The prophecy lies burning
The wolf is now unchained
The serpent being lays bleeding
From biting at his own tail
He becomes enraged and shakes
The vixen takes her place
Upon the nine worlds tree
With the force of hels undead
She strives to devastate
Hel is among the living
Rising from beyond the gates
Of a once cold, icy kingdom
Her throne of souls rots now
The final days are here
Decrepit lands are laid to waste
Times three they bought down worlds
Until their deaths it all shall burn
