Across The Rainbow Bridge

My days are numbered, soon

I have to leave

The Norns have stretched my living thread

The notion of my demise won't leave me be

Why cannot death just set me free?

I've lived a life of prosperity

But I'm not as young as

I used to be

Down the road waits misery

Why cannot death just set me free?

Set me free

Countless armies have

I attacked

Not once have

I backed down

And though

I've spilled a lot of blood

I never once received a mortal wound

I've raided shores in many lands

I cannot count the men

I've killed

So many friends died with sword in hand

But the warrior's death was never granted me

I dress myself in battle clothes

Alone, I make the final ride

My sight is blurred by whipping snow

I seek to end my life

I want to walk across the

Rainbow Bridge

And see my fathers in the

Golden Hall

They beckon me to join their feast

In my dreams

I hear their call
