tragedy and triumph - beneath the howling gate lyrics

the fl!ckering light of my torch relumines
the silhouettes of the menace, lurking in the deeps
our elders seiðr still lingers in my ears
while approaching the end of time, the fleshmade fear

the winds still shape the rugged arcs and clang them like a throat
i hold my axe tight, whilst passing through the howling gate
i enter our great halls, made of ymir’s bones
facing my brother’s call, to settle the heir to the crown
this sickening fight for glory never ends

my younger brother never learned to understand
that honor thrives through n0ble deeds and not through the thirst for thrones
i forgave him and all his intrigues, to protect our very home
but he claims ever since, to remain as heir, all alone
and rule everyone against our father’s writ
with iron handle and terror

now as i stand in front of him, i remember one last time
how we, as brothers, shared one path until tonight
as one will die
his eyes are filled with hate and greed, as he swings our father’s sword
i elude the deadly strike and retaliate with all my force
time stands still as he falls and i witness his fear
as i swing at his head, he cries for mercy
but now i seal the thread of fate, that the norns have twined
and hear his cries die away, within the howls of our gate
as he ignored, what our father said
he had to face this fate
but why was i
fated to this hate?
