(Verse 1 - Male Vocal, Deep, Foreboding)
(Slow, heavy drums, like a distant march. Low, mournful horn.)
The chains of Fenrir, they groan and crack,
Sun devoured, no turning back.
Across the Bifrost, shadows creep,
Ancient slumber, broken sleep.
Horn of Heimdall, piercing sound,
Echoes over hallowed ground.
The giants stir, from Jötunheim,
A final battle, marking time.
(Pre-Chorus - Male Vocal, Growing Intensity)
No shield will hold, no sword will stay,
The dawn of sorrow, this final day.
Prophecy's whisper, now a roar,
At the end of all we knew before.
(Chorus - Male Vocal, Powerful, Resonant, Building)
(Drums intensify, faster, relentless. Deep male choir joins.)
At Ragnarök's Edge, we stand as one!
Beneath a sky, where light is gone!
For kin and glory, last defiant breath!
To meet our fate, in glorious death!
The worlds collide, in fire and ice!
Valhalla waits, our sacrifice!
(Verse 2 - Male Vocal, Grim, Steadfast)
(Beat maintains intensity, driving forward.)
From Midgard's fields, to Asgard's height,
We face the darkness, embrace the fight.
The serpent rises, from the deep,
Ancient grudges, secrets keep.
Brother fights brother, friend with foe,
As ash and ruin widely sow.
The tree of Yggdrasil, it groans,
Bearing witness to our moans.
(Pre-Chorus - Male Vocal, Urgent)
No shield will hold, no sword will stay,
The dawn of sorrow, this final day.
Prophecy's whisper, now a roar,
At the end of all we knew before.
(Chorus - Male Vocal, Explosive, Full Power)
(Drums at peak, crashing cymbals. Full choir, almost a roar.)
At Ragnarök's Edge, we stand as one!
Beneath a sky, where light is gone!
For kin and glory, last defiant breath!
To meet our fate, in glorious death!
The worlds collide, in fire and ice!
Valhalla waits, our sacrifice!
(Bridge - Male Vocal, Slows, Solemn, then rebuilds)
(Percussion becomes sparse, heavy, deliberate. Lingering horn.)
A final blow, a solemn vow,
The ancient cycle's ending now.
But from the ashes, life will bloom,
Beyond this fleeting, destined doom.
(Instrumental Outro - Drums Fade, Lingering Horn)
(Drums slowly fade to a single, resonant beat. Horn call echoes into silence.)
The end is nigh. Yet we endure.
