I've been laying down
Facing the stars many times
On the battle grounds
Wondering if I
Will survive
To see a new day
Once again, for me
The stars shine in the skies
But is the last thing
I ever will see
Cause my heart
Has run out of more beats
Resting, dressed like a queen
I am sailing away
My drakkar is my bed
In the midst of the bay
I see all mine at the coast
Watching me, and bidding farewell
Bows and arrows in flames
In the still of the night
Bring me glory in my sleep
As they did in my life
I am ready to open the door
To the hall of the brave
I fought my way through and out
I got the marks on my skin
That I proudly wear
As jewels. and I believe
They prove I lived
Protecting my kin
There is no remorse
I leave nothing behind but my deeds
May forever be told
I died young
But my soul
Was already old
