My days are numbered, soon 
I have to leave
The Norns have stretched my living thread
The notion of my demise won't leave me be
Why cannot death just set me free?
I've lived a life of prosperity
But I'm not as young as 
I used to be
Down the road waits misery
Why cannot death just set me free? 
Set me free
Countless armies have 
I attacked
Not once have 
I backed down
And though 
I've spilled a lot of blood
I never once received a mortal wound
I've raided shores in many lands
I cannot count the men 
I've killed
So many friends died with sword in hand
But the warrior's death was never granted me
I dress myself in battle clothes
Alone, I make the final ride
My sight is blurred by whipping snow
I seek to end my life
I want to walk across the 
Rainbow Bridge
And see my fathers in the 
Golden Hall
They beckon me to join their feast
In my dreams 
I hear their call
