[Verse 1]
Ice on the shield rim.
Blood in the pine.
We march through the fjord mist.
Teeth set in a line.
The black sail creaks.
The oar cuts hard.
Ash on our faces.
Mud in the scar.
Deep under the moon-howl.
Old names wake.
Bone drum calls us.
No hand will shake.
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the rune fire rise.
Hear the cold sea sing.
Little voices in the dark.
Ring by ring.
[Chorus]
Raven axe oath!
Raven axe oath!
Burn the gate.
Take the coast.
Raven axe oath!
Raven axe oath!
Kneel to the night.
Feed the ghost.
(ra-ven axe oath)
(ra-ven axe oath)
[Verse 2]
We cross the broken field.
Past the iron post.
Wolves at the treeline.
Hands around the throat.
The sky splits open.
Black snow falls.
I wear the thunder.
I answer the calls.
Stone by stone.
We drag our wrath.
Red on the helm crest.
Cold on the path.
[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the rune fire rise.
Hear the cold sea sing.
Little voices in the dark.
Ring by ring.
[Chorus]
Raven axe oath!
Raven axe oath!
Burn the gate.
Take the coast.
Raven axe oath!
Raven axe oath!
Kneel to the night.
Feed the ghost.
(ra-ven axe oath)
(ra-ven axe oath)
[Bridge]
[Breakdown]
Down in the pit.
Down in the maw.
Children of ash.
Learn the law.
Boom of the drum.
Claw of the sword.
We do not beg.
We become the horde.
[Final Chorus]
Raven axe oath!
Raven axe oath!
Burn the gate.
Take the coast.
Raven axe oath!
Raven axe oath!
Kneel to the night.
Feed the ghost.
Raven axe oath!
Raven axe oath!
Hail to the dark.
Hail the host.
(ra-ven axe oath)
(ra-ven axe oath)
