Eric The Red - Týr

Why I take refuge here, my father was

Outlawed from the old land in east

A story of bloodshed and I too was outlawed

Now I take refuge here

What brings you here my friend, what brings

You north to where hell is of ice

South from the sand dunes where hell is of

Fire, why have you come so far

Anywhere, you don’t care where you

Go as long as there are faithless you can

Make believe need help

And that you have the cure, of your

Intentions, I’m sure

I can’t bring it all to reason you’ve

Convinced these people that all

Their ancestors were wrong, disoriented they

Do not know where they belong

Like a virus you’ll go on, and when I’m dead and gone

Both sides waging war will be for one true divinity

Like a virus you’ll go on, and when I’m dead and gone

Both sides waging war will be raging in the

Name of one true divinity

This I don’t understand, why this perverted

Superhuman ideal

So we are born to nothing but torture and

Torment, that, I don’t understand

Clearly I see the end, I pray that the embers

Will persist from my faith

Clearly I’m outnumbered, allegedly outdated

Since your arrival here

Anywhere, you don’t care where you

Go as long as there are faithless you can

Make believe need help

And that you have the cure, of your

Intentions, I’m sure

I can’t bring it all to reason you’ve

Convinced these people that all

Their ancestors were wrong, disoriented they

Do not know where they belong

Like a virus you’ll go on, and when I’m dead and gone

Both sides waging war will be for one true divinity

Just convert the whole wide world, into the

Abyss we are hurled

Sentenced come end of the world, spare me

Your selfrighteous word
