Banners raised daylight fades As darkness consumes all in sight Sand and stone our earthly throne Embracing the last winter's night Come torn in hand upon the sand Our weapons raised to the sky In Odin's eyes our battle cries To Valhalla we fly Leaving the mortal behind In my earthen tomb enshrined Here upon the crimson shore My soul lives on forevermore Fare thee well for sleep awaits Take our place beyond the stars In eternity's embrace Ride for glory victory is ours Here we ride (we ride) across the land of time (we fight) Here we ride (we ride) until the morning light (we die) Here we ride (we ride) beyond the crimson tide (we fight) On the shores tonight we die (we die)
