Lyrics

Ragna Rock

[Verse 1]

Shards of shattered twilight slice

Through glacial palaces of ice

The goddess gets her planet prize

A wolf with wild fire in his eyes

Yggdrasil's roots are shaken

The fire-juggling giants arrive

Like hornets swarming from a hive

All demon spirits come alive

The gods they are forsaken

[Chorus]

Ragnarok, the Skalds of old all warn

Ragnarok, a new world shall be born

Shall be born

[Verse 2]

The blood-red sun has ceased to beat

It's left for starving wolves to eat

They tear it like a hunk of meat

They swallow up its light and heat

Like a pack of hungry jackals

Clouds of angry blackness rise

And fissures of a mighty size

Appear in both the earth and skies

As Fenrir breaks his shackles

[Chorus]

Ragnarok, the Skalds of old all warn

Ragnarok, a new world shall be born

Shall be born

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]

The Midgard serpent rears its head

It rises from the ocean's bed

Invades the land. The living-dead

Have launched their ship, they must be fed

Now the flood tides they are rising

The lakes and rivers overflow

And soon the world has sunk below

An endless sea, which isn't so

Very much surprising

[Chorus]

Ragnarok, the Skalds of old all warn

Ragnarok, a new world shall be born

Shall be born
