[Verse 1]
We crossed the black fjord
With salt on our mouths
Oars bit the water
Like teeth in the south
Iron on shoulder
Fur frozen stiff
Names carved in pine bark
We made our own myth
[Pre-Chorus]
Raise the ash
Raise the bone
Hear the old blood
In the throat of stone
[Chorus]
Raven oath
Call us home
Raven oath
We stand alone
Raven oath
Stone and snow
Raven oath
Let the dark wind blow
[Verse 2]
Longhouse doors split
By the fire's red teeth
Drums in the marrow
And frost under feet
We drank from the horn
Till the ale turned black
Then marched with the moon
And never looked back
[Pre-Chorus]
Raise the ash
Raise the bone
Hear the old blood
In the throat of stone
[Chorus]
Raven oath
Call us home
Raven oath
We stand alone
Raven oath
Stone and snow
Raven oath
Let the dark wind blow
[Bridge]
When the ice takes names
We will not kneel
When the crows descend
We will not yield
Brothers in ruin
Brothers in flame
We burn with the north
And answer the name
[Final Chorus]
Raven oath
Call us home
Raven oath
We stand alone
Raven oath
Stone and snow
Raven oath
Let the dark wind blow
[Ritual Outro]
Oath
Oath
Raven oath
We rise like smoke from the snow
