Hammer In My Hands

[Low chant

Foot-stomp tempo]

Ho-hey

Ho-hey

Ho-hey

Raise that steel

Frost on my beard

Blood on my shield

Boots crush bone

As the weak ones yield

Longship carving

Through the blackened foam

Smoke on the wind

I am not going home

Hammer in my hands

I am the storm

Flames in my veins

Hearts torn and torn

Ravens circle high as the sky turns red

Sing my name in the hall of the dead (hey!)

Iron and ash

In my ragged breath

Oath on my tongue

Tastes just like death

Skies crack open

But I never bend

If this is my night

Let it never end

Hammer in my hands

I am the storm

Flames in my veins

Hearts torn and torn

Ravens circle high as the sky turns red

Sing my name in the hall of the dead (hall of the dead)

[Guitars lock to drums

Chant builds]

Ho-hey

Ho-hey

Who will stand

When the sea runs black?

Ho-hey

Ho-hey

Take my blade

You won’t give it back

Hammer in my hands

I am the storm

Flames in my veins

Hearts torn and torn

Ravens circle high as the sky turns red

Sing my name in the hall of the dead

[Half-time

Gang vocals]

Ho-hey

Ho-hey

Hammer in my hands

Till the last man falls
