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)
