Here I stand, alone again Upon the battlefield With sword in hand, I lay me down My destiny awaits The first to strike, the last to fall My father would be proud One last time I think of home My legacy remains When the time comes for me I'll be buried at sea And a valkyrie will take me where I long to be Carry me through the gates Where my brothers await In the halls of Valhalla we'll celebrate The drums of war are silent now And snow begins to fall I cannot move, I cannot feel But I am not afraid I'll fight again by Odin's side Such is my destiny My time has come, I close my eyes And draw my final breath When the time comes for me I'll be buried at sea And a valkyrie will take me where I long to be Carry me through the gates Where my brothers await In the halls of Valhalla we'll celebrate
