| Stone face dog, swirling fog, gates open on the dark, dark night |
| Standing stone, skull and bone, dead witness to an unseen fight |
| Beat the drum, beat the drum, beat forever on the endless march |
| Stricken dumb, cut and run, somebody’s screaming and the sky is dark |
| Sword and shield, bone and steel, rictus grin |
| Deaf forever to the battles din |
| Deaf forever to the battles din |
| March or croak, flame and smoke, burn forever in eternal pain |
| Charge and fall, bugle call, bone splinter in the driving rain |
| Horses scream, Viking dream, drowned heroes in a lake of blood |
| Armored fist, severed wrist, broken spears in a sea of mud |
| Sword and shield, bone and steel, rictus grin |
| Deaf forever to the battles din |
| Deaf forever to the battles din |
| Deaf forever |
| Stone deaf forever |
| Mother earth, mother earth, enfold you in her cold embrace |
| Sinking down, killing ground, worm crawling on your cold white face |
| Win or lose, naught to choose, all men are equal when their memory fades |
| No one knows, friends or foes, if Valhalla lies beyond the grave |
| Sword and shield, bone and steel, rictus grin |
| Deaf forever to the battles din |
| Deaf forever to the battles din |
| Deaf forever to the battles din |
| Deaf forever to the battles din, hey |
