My entry for the Gear Gods songwriting competition on YouTube.

Lyrics:

We come from a broken land far away 
To an island lost beneath a fading sun
With pain and fear in our hearts
Our quest for the Old Gods has begun

We wait within this mystic place
For contact with a god like race
In the arena where the old man waits

The arena waits for us to prove our worth
A contest fought since ancient times
We wield the axes once again
Viking warriors born to die

The prizes wait within the vault of time
Can we unlock them with the mystic signs?
Will our plan succeed this time?

As the ravens fills the air
Odin hear our heavy metal prayer
We once were lost but now we’re found
And to the Old Gods we are bound
Songs for the Old Gods

Loki’s laughter fills the air
Odin hear out bloody battle prayer
We once were lost but now we’re found
And to the Raven we are bound
Songs for the Old Gods

As broken bodies lie upon a bloody field
I am still alive, my fate is sealed
The Trickster's endgame is revealed

Loki’s laughter fills the air
Odin hear my bloody battle prayer
I once was lost but now I’m found
And to the Trickster I am bound
Songs for the Old Gods
