Westerlands

Find another way We are so close Pray the gods stay with us Don't lose sight Lest we be laid to waste At the bottom of the bay So many things left unsaid Will we be left for dead If this is to be my last voyage in this world All I ask is to receive that which I deserve I know it may sound strange or maybe quite absurd If you can see me father please hear these words All I've ever wanted is to find my purpose in life An answer to the questions trapped deep inside of my mind Please cure the sickness that has left me blind If I've not given enough please give me a sign We sail in search of a new land One we would plunder for riches and fame We cast aside our oppressors hand One day the gods will remember our names Forefather, I need you More than ever, more than anyone Keep me strong, keep me calm For the storm closes faster and faster I know that I may wash away My life another page of someone else's history But if you hold me close and guide me home I will make you prouder than you've ever been Thor beats his anvil in anger and rage See the sea churn in the surf he creates But we stay, astride the waves Unbowed, unbent, unbroken, we remain Fools The gods betray us They wish us dead In the dark of the night But not in our beds The gods betray us They would have our heads For daring to believe We might achieve glory I pray to the skies that we see our home I pray that the seas will calm I pray I see the faces of all I love I pray this before my time is up But not before our boots taste sand And we hold our trophies above our heads Our axes buried in all who would stand Before us in the Westerlands
