31
32
33
he hung on the windswept world tree
34
35
whose roots
no one knows
36
37
for nine whole nights he hung there…
38
39
by Gugnir, his…
…pierced
…spear
40
41
swimming in pain he peered into the depths
42
43
and cried out in agony
44
45
reaching out he grasped the runes
46
47
before falling back from the abyss
48
49
he gave himself
50
unto himself
51
in a world of sheering…
52
…pain
53
so that we all may live our lives
54
55
by the wisdom
that he gained
56
57

60
61
62
63
64
65
you doubted…
…him,
66
and spread their lies
67
across the world,
68
with sword in hand
69
you raped our souls,
70
and stole our right
71
all for the words
72
of mild-mannered man
73
you listened to
74
mild-mannered god
75
and put your faith
76
in deceitful words
77
your powertrip
78
was paid by…
…blood
79
in kindness's name
80
you spilled our blood
81
82
83
84
85
i refuse
86
to submit
87
to the god
88
you say is kind
89
i know what's right
90
and it is time
91
it's time to…
…fight,
92
and free our minds

let me die
106
without fear
107
as i have…
…lived
108
without it
109
so shut your mouth
110
and spare my ears
111
i'm fed up
112
with all your bullshit
113
after a thousand years of oppression
114
115
let the berserks rise again
116
117
let the world hear these
118
words once more:
119
"Save us, oh lord,
120
from the wrath of the …
…Norsemen"
121
122
123
124
125

129
130
131
132
133
134
135
136
137
Our spirits were forged
138
in snow and ice
139
to bend like steel
140
forged over fire
141
we were not made
142
to bend like reed
143
or to turn
144
the other cheek
145
146
147
148
149
he grasped the runes,
150
151
152
they're ours to use
