The Northern Gale

Verse 1

Frozen waves

Claw at the hull

I stood alone on the deck while my brothers slept

Hammering hail

Cold

The iron in my palm grew warm

Chorus

Salt in the air

I was born a viking

Raised by the gales of the sea

North man

Ice in my lungs

I was born a viking

Vowing to never bend my knee

Verse 2

Timber cracked under the weight

I watched the land disappear into the gray

Wolves of the water

Howling

Black depths

I saw the giants rise

Fierce hearts never falter

Strong hands hold the line

The thunder spoke my name tonight

Chorus

Salt in the air

I was born a viking

Raised by the gales of the sea

North man

Ice in my lungs

I was born a viking

Vowing to never bend my knee

Bridge

Pull for the glory

Pull for the ruin

Pull for the saga yet to be written

One path ahead

One fate to face

Blood on the spray of the ocean

My father waits by the hearth in the sky

Victory

Death

Glory

Chorus

Salt in the air

I was born a viking

Raised by the gales of the sea

North man

Ice in my lungs

I was born a viking

Vowing to never bend my knee

Outro

North man

Home in the foam

Always the north man

Far from the shore

A north man

Free

Free
