1/11
1. War Of The Gods
War, the very first war of our world,When the treacherous witch was killedThree times burned and three times born,By searing flames was Gullveig torn.
Death, Odin hurled his spear off with great forceDeep into the great vana-fyrdbattle horns gave up their soundAnd Asgard walls razed to the ground.
The Vanir felt deceivedHne was a foolwithout Mmir at his sideHne could not ruleIn a fit of violent rageMmir's blood was shed
and to Odin's court they sent Mmir's severed head
Truce, so a brittle and frail peace was forgedAnd to ensure that the peace remained.Njordr and Freyr to Asgard cameand Hn' and Mim to Vanaheim
Death, see the furious gods wanting blood,Odin knew that a raging warwould not bring them any gainJust leave a black and bitter stain.
Odin tog huvudet ochsmorde det med rtersom hindrar detfrn att ruttnahan kvad sedantrollsnger ver dets att Mimer terkunde tala till honom
[English translation:]Odin took the head, and anointed it with herbswhich prevents it from rottinghe sang his magic songs over it
so that Mimer be able to speak to him
The Vanir felt deceivedHne was a foolwithout Mmir at his sideHne could not ruleIn a fit of violent rageMmir's blood was shedand to Odin's court they sent Mmir's severed head

you ask of me to shed all my tearsto let him return from kingdom of fearsWhy should I weep? or lose any sleep?He never brought me pleasure or gleeso why would I help to set Balder free
You come to me,eyes full of griefall of your tears mean nothing to meso why will you not just leave me to beam I to blame? Well, I'm not ashamed!Oh how I smiled when I heard the taleOf Loke the sly, so clever and brave
Hder the fool,Lopt's willing toolhe held the twig that cut Balder's skinLopt aimed the shotthat killed Hder's twinleave me alone
don't come here and moanI've never wished to see Balder's wellso let his soul remain down in hel

You come to me and cannot believethat this old crow now talking to youis Loke not Tck you bloody dawn foolsyou come to me and you do not see

3. Destroyer Of The Universe
I rise up from muspelheimMy fury is sublimeThe sword I bring burns violentlyWith wild and lethal flames
I march against the asagodsTo bring the end of timeI am pure and endless painAnd Surtur is my name
See me rise, the mighty SurtDestroyer of the universeBringer of flames and endless hurt

Scorcher of men and earth
[Solo: Sdenberg]
Swordless frej with horn in handRises to his final stand
He doesn't stand a single chanceI'll split his living corpse in half
And yet he stabbed me in the eyeHe drove the horn in deepThe overwhelming, raging painIs driving me insane
The waves of flames thatI've unleashed will eat us all aliveThe rage that burns within my heartIs uncontrolled and wild
And now everything shall die!Massive waves consume us all, the ocean is releasedOur dying world quakes underneathAnd sinks into the seaAnd now nothing will survive!Extinction waits for everyoneFor gods and men alikeWhen all are gone of the old worldA new one will arise
[Solo: Sdenberg]
See me rise, the mighty Surt
Destroyer of the universeBringer of flames and endless hurtScorcher of men and earth
See me die, the mighty SurtDestroyer of the universeDrowning in waves that floods the earthThe beginning, of a new rebirth
4. Slaves Of Fear
They speak of love and toleranceThey thrive on people's ignoranceTo make you all Slaves of fear
They feed on your anxietyTo build their dead societyThey've kept you down for a thousand years
They nurture prejudice and hateCondemn the wars that they createIn the name of whatever god
They gladly sacrifice your livesIncreasing power is their prize

Without regrets they'll spill your blood
They're feeding you liesWith calculating smilesEnslavement of the human mindAs long as you kneel to their authority
Religion is what makes you blind
They're treating you as mindless foolsAnd use you as obedient toolsIt's time to set your spirit free
This world we cannot tolerateIt's time to seal all preachers' fateAnd let them swing from Oden's tree
They're feeding you liesWith calculating smiles
Enslavement of the human mindAs long as you kneel to their authorityReligion is what makes you blind
Your minds are restrainedObedience is the chainThey've locked you up and thrown away the keyYour souls are for sale,And you're the ones who payBut still, you'll never be set free
5. Live Without Regrets
From birth we're taught how to surviveWe're taught how war is wagedAnd there are no men now aliveWho stops our wild rampage
Light at heart we bide our banewhatever death awaits!Norsemen live without regretsWe accept our woven fates
So fearlessly we charge aheadThere is no time to hesitate
Don't despair, show no fearLive your life without regretsDon't despair and show no fearIn the face of a certain death
A coward thinks he'll always liveIf it keeps himself from strifeOld age leaves no rest and peacethough spears may spare his life
We don't mourn a friend that fellor dread the day we'll fall ourselves

Warriors don't go to Hel'cause we know Ygg will greet us well!
Fearlessly we charge aheadThere is no time to hesitate
Don't despair, show no fearLive your life without regretsDon't despair and show no fearIn the face of a certain death
So raise your horns to those who diedLet's drink to fallen friends tonightLet's celebrate their glory lifeWe'll meet again in Valhall when we dieWhen we die!When we die!
6. The Last Stand Of Frej
See him rise, from land of flamesour destruction is at hand.It is time to make standnow I face, and awesome foeI will always stand my groundTo this end my fate is bound!
This fight is mine and mine aloneand there's no help from anyone!
His wrath burns!With insane heatall his fury is unleashedthere is no way to defeat!The forces and the power that he wields
My hand holds the horn so firmI am calm and ready to dieEverything around me burnsAnd I know that I will not survive
See him rise from land of flamesin this wild and barren landI will make my final standMy death awaits, I have no fearTo this end my fate is boundthough I'm doomedI'll stand my ground!
This fight is mine and mine aloneand there's no help from anyone!
[Solo: Simon Solomon]
I go forth to meet my doombut I will die in vain

perdition waits for everyoneThe world will die in flames
With all my strength I run the horndeep into his eyeAnd as he swings his burning sword
I die with a tired smile!
[Solo: Simon Solomon]
7. For Victory Or Death
Time!has come to wash our shame awayto erase the image of defeatWe!
have licked our wounds,restored our strengthand our vengeance will be oh so sweet
They thought they had us downthat we'd never rise againthey will learn that they were deadly wrongwhat's owed will be repaid
Again we'll feed the wolvesand then vengeance will be ourswe'll split their skulls and spill their gutsupon the frozen groundYeah,we'll never kneel againnot to deity nor mennow they'll taste our bitter hatewhat's owed will be repaid
So raise the flag once moreand the eagle will be fedonce again we march to warfor victory or death

8. Wrath Of The Norsemen
My head hurts like hellCan't open my eyesMy clothes are all wetAnd I'm freezing right throughDon't know where I amOr how to get homeMy muscles are numbAnd it's hard to get up
My muscles they acheWith every moveI stand on my feet
But my knees feel so weak
[Chorus:]Somebody wake meFrom this horrible dreamSomebody save meFrom this terror I feel
[Solo: Sderberg]
I stumble aroundon the soft muddy groundI call out the nameof the friends I can't findbut only the windAnd the ravens reply
With every gaspwith every breathsmoke fills my lungsand my intestines wrenchWith every gaspthe sweet taste of deathThe air is full of a thickpungent stench
[Solo: Sderberg]
So comes then rainit's colder than iceI wash off my faceand open my eyesAnd then I seebut wish I were blind
They are all deadthere's blood everywhere
The Norsemen they leftonly death and despairA stench of flesh

that fills the Autumn air
[Chorus:]Somebody wake meFrom this horrible dreamSomebody save me
From this terror and painNo one can save meFrom this horrible dreamNo one can hear meOr my heart-wrenching screams
9. A Beast Am I
Conceived was IFrom chaos and hate
Of malice, deceit and bloodAnd how would they knowMy fate is to riseAgainst the AsagodsMy being is full, full of a rageAn evil that can't be tamedIt darkens my soulAnd blackens the bloodA fire that fills my veins
So howDid I ever end up here?Humiliated, broken and weakI've waitedFor a thousand yearsTo break these chains apart andTo finally break myself free
I bit the hand, off the mighty TyrWhen I couldn't, tare my tiesNow banished I dwellA sword in my jawawaiting the end of timeIn darkness I drownConsumed by my hate
Longing for revengeAllfather will payFor his deceitAt the battleOf Ragnark
A beast am ISo vicious and grimThey fear my meanGrinning teethI bide my timemy sweet revenge
Soon my ties will fallAnd finally I will be free
8/13/2019 Surtur Rising
9/11
So when you hear me howlingYou'll know that I have come for youWhen you hear me call your nameYour life will end in nameless pain
[Solo: Simon Solomon]
Conceived was IFrom chaos and hateOf malice, deceit and bloodAnd how would they knowMy fate is to riseAgainst the AsagodsMy being is full, full of a rageAn evil that can't be tamedIt darkens my soulAnd blackens the bloodA fire that fills my veins
A beast am ISo vicious and grimThey fear my meanGrinning teethI bide my timemy sweet revengeSoon my ties will fallAnd finally I will be!Finally break myself!Finally I will be free!
10. Doom Over Dead Man
The autumn clouds are caving inAnd night comes crawling, black as sinLightning strikes, and rain beginsA storm that tears my soul
I toss and tumble in my bedMy thoughts are spinning in my headDarkness nears, soon I'll be deadI'm losing all control
I've spent my life in foolish questsfor gold and riches, I confessAnd now I'm left with just regretsToo late to change my ways
My life, it seems, has slipped awayI leave no legacy to praiseNothing more for me to sayMy life has been a waste
When!
My time has come for me to leaveWhen!When judgment's passed upon my life
8/13/2019 Surtur Rising
10/11
When!A cold dark grave will wait for meWill!Will my name live endlessly?When!My time has come for me to leave
When!When judgment's passed upon my lifeWhen!A cold dark grave will wait for meWill!Will my name live endlessly?
So I dieBut won't be mournedBroken and aloneI wish that I were never born
So I die and won't be missedNo rune stone will be raisedAs my body rots away
Die!All friends and cattle pass awayDie!And death will come for every manDie!But I know one thing never diesDoom!The sentence passed upon the deadNow!
The time has come for me to leaveNow!When judgement's passed up on my lifeNow!Now I will rest in my dark graveWill!They speak my name with reverence?
My life has been a wasteNo rune stone will be raisedSo I die, but won't be mournedI wish that I were never born
I rest here in my shallow graveAs my body rots away

we hear the word
we lose ourselves
but we find it all....
cause we are the ones that want to play
always want to go
but you never want to stay
and we are the ones that want to choose
always want to play
but you never want to lose
aerials, in the sky
when you lose small mind
you free your life
life is a waterfall
we drink from the river
then we turn around and put up our walls
swimming through the void
we hear the word
we lose ourselvesbut we find it all...
cause we are the ones that want to play
always want to go
but you never want to stay
and we are the ones that want to choose
always want to play
but you never want to lose
aerials, in the sky
when you lose small mind
you free your life
aerials, so up high
when you free your eyes eternal prize
aerials, in the sky
when you lose small mind
you free your life
aerials, so up high
when you free your eyes eternal prize
