Draugr
Verse 1:
At last! The time has come, After so much blood has been drawn.
From ashes arise, before your eyes, see me now, blade to the skies.
My soul resides no more.
Chorus: x2
This hell I bring down upon you
And now there’s nothing you can do
Verse 2:
And now all your hope’s withdrawn, As you see me standing alone.
Scattered around, your brothers lay, the grass turned red, you have lost this day.
Soon you will lose your soul.
Bridge Verse:
This betrayal now answered in full, as I spread your bowels upon the earth
For I have returned the foul act in kind, the vile murder of me and mine.
Not for gold nor jewels nor earthly wealth, could atone the wrong done to me.
Nothing short but the end of your line, your name wiped away for all time.
Chorus: x2

Chorus: x2
Verse 1:
The freezing hand, reaching for me, the stench of death
Its haunting voice, whispers my name, paralyzed in fear
I try to run, I cannot breathe, can’t even shut my eyes
I am wide awake, feel like I’m dying, dying of fear
Chorus:
What is this thing, that I see, this cold being, a shadow
Figure in black, stands before me, I cannot run, though i’m wide awake
Darkest apparition, hovering above me, still face seeing, not flesh not stone
Figure in black, stands before me, I cannot run, though i’m wide awake

Bridge verse: x2
Glued to the ground like I’m wearing boots of lead
Hear myself scream but its only in my head
Sweat dripping in my eyes absolutely terrified
It’s moving closer but the horror has me petrified
Chorus
Dark Siren
Verse 1
For countless days and endless nights/ Lost adrift at sea so many of us drowned and died
Sail torn to shreds a splintered mast/ Thrown to the winds as deadly storms were cast
Sea water all around as thirst takes its toll/ Driven mad by hunger turning into cannibals
When over the waves we heard a sweet voice in song/ Dragged from our sorrows, mesmerized
we were pulled along
Chorus
Crash upon the rocks/ Crawl to where she stands/ Dark siren is there/ Singing the song of my
end
Verse 2
One by one we came under her spell/ Every night she lured us to her blissful hell
Calling out our names hypnotized by her gaze/ After she had her fill there were less and less of
us everyday
One morning came I was the only one left alive/ Just piles of meat and bones was all that
entered into my sight
Too weak to escape too scared to stay here/ Too late too late I can hear her coming near
Chorus
Solos

Ruins of Lindisfarne
Verse 1
Once there was a place that brought peace to my mind
The building it stood like a pillar of light to the blind
With my brothers I spent my days writing down His Holy Word
In prayer and song to the glory of our Lord
Then came that night when raged the winds and rains
Dreadful lightning strikes angry thunder filled the air
The lightning flashes revealed in the clouds such terrible things we saw
Serpents and dragon’s fire and my fears began to grow
Verse 2
Then came that day when God did shut his eyes
From over the waves they came devils in human disguise
They jumped onto the sands such howls they growled to the sky
It was then I knew we would all surely die
Verse 3
Panicked beyond belief fear we’d never known
What sins had we done for such evil to befall our home
We prayed and hid but alas to no avail
The house of our Lord turned into a fiery hell
One Need Not Be a Chamber to be Haunted
Verse
She died on a winter's night, but she never really went away
Was it just my frozen breath, or something of her that remains
Nothing could i have done to save her, or perhaps more than i knew
The guilt I feel will be eternal, the ghost of her feels so real
Chorus x2
Though I do not see her, I know that she is near
One need not be a chamber to be haunted
Bridge verse
I walk past her grave, where the whispers are
I swear I hear her say, "my soul its cold!"
And now in our bed, where all the fires are dead
Her screams keep me awake, "Oh why did you let me go!"
Chorus x4
Hervor
Verse 1:
Daughter of the king, who now rots underground
On an island far away, for which she now sets sail
To gain what is rightly hers, her inheritance
But to gain it back, she’ll call out the name of the dead
Arise! Angantyr! Your blood now calls your name
The curse concerns me not, your bloodied blade will be mine
From the fire and ghostly hands, it was revealed to her
And the angry eyes of the dead, watched as she claimed her right
Chorus:
Hervor, daughter of the king
Hervor, wielder of the cursed Tyrfing
Hervor, lady of the northern blood
Hervor, see her enemies die in the mud
Verse 2:
Now in the hall she sits, heir to her father's lands
The sword by her side, the shield maiden queen
The wind blows hard tonight, through her flaming hair
She has grown proud and strong, tall as a Valkyrie
From Asgard the Aesir look down, favored is she in their eyes
Blessed is the lady’s name, on the tongues of the gods
The cursed sword in her hand, falls hard upon her foes
But strong in mind and in form, she’ll live out her days
Chorus

Drowned Men
Verse1
Finally the ice melts away, and into the seas we go
Seeking land treasure and fame, yet fearful of what lies below
When suddenly we're surrounded by storms, and violent clouds fill the skies
Awoken from sleep out from the deep, the father of all serpents did rise
Chorus
OH NOOOO!
One hundred men down below
Into the deep into the black, where even the valkyries will not go
Have our gods left us forsaken, as we're devoured inside the maw of the beast
Verse 2
Many sons and fathers were lost, and blood and gore fell down like rain
Those of us that did escape, looked back on the horizon in flames

Assassin [wip]
[A: prechorus]
Scimitar strike!
Fedayeen away!
Darkness falls, shadow-like!
Last breath, now you pray!
[B: chorus]
From the desert darkness i come
Dagger drawn words of vengeance i pray
From behind i come to slit your throat
And into the night, fade away
[B: chorus]
Night wrapped ‘round me like a cloak
My heart immune to the heat of the day
In your eyes I see a look of surprise
And watch as the light fades away
[C: stoner riff]
faaaaaaaaaaaaade awayee x 4
[D: 5/4 riff]
All across the endless sands
Eternity before you
Internal now they call to you
Eternity before you
[E: Bridge (?)]
The old man on the mountain
Commands us to die
Driven by the way of isma’il
Eagerly we await paradise
