Hung in a tree far above Bleeding for a heathen spear Sacrificed to Hangatyr The wolfs howl, the ravens flee Screams of anguish Writhe in despair and fear Their hopes of an arrival To the land beyond the ocean A life on the knees You're better off dead Your life is fading Take your last breath Call upon the gods Summon the king of the hanged A last wish to enter the mighty halls Of all the fallen heroes
