lyrics

Ruins of my past
A long forgotten life
A place that I called home
I left it all behind.

To face my deepest fears
The rain of blood and tears
To walk the darkest path
The sword as my companion.

Far away I've been
Wonders I have seen
Conquered the unknown
Sailed uncharted waters.

A thousand times I've died
on battlefields of time
I'm longing to be free
A new horizon's calling me.

Soon I will escape this fate,
Inside the great Halls
I will drink and feast
Among the heroes of my young days.
Soon upon a windy day,

I will hear the heavens say:
Welcomed be the ones
Who are the heroes of the old ways.

I fought on the burning ground, conquered ice and snow
swam in wild rivers that no man ever saw
I will take my last steps into the hall of fallen
celebrate 'til the end of time when Heimdall's Horn is calling
meeeeeeeeeeee!

Courage is my way.
I feel no pain.
One day,
I'll be free.

I fought on the burning ground, conquered ice and snow
swam in wild rivers that no man ever saw
I will take my last steps into the hall of fallen
celebrate 'til the end of time when Heimdall's Horn is calling me

Soon I will escape this fate,
Inside the great Halls
I will drink and feast
Among the heroes of my young days.
Soon upon a windy day,

I will hear the heavens say:
Welcomed be the ones
Who are the heroes of the old ways.
