Stridslysten Lyrics

Turn my eyes from the world.
Darkness and murder, stupidity and flair.
It makes me averse and ready for battle.
Ready to bloody my sword.

He made me into a hammer,
And the world is an anvil.
He has forged me into an axe,
And the world is a tree.

Truth does not fear death,
For truth can never die.
Truth has become a torch and an axe,
In my hand to cut down Yggdrasil,
And set the world ablaze.

Contentious, a horse of war.
Contentious, a blazing fire.
Contentious, a raging plague.
Contentious, the desire for battle.

Truth is the name I am given.
Truth is a fire.
Truth cannot assume.
Truth cannot believe.
Truth cannot bargain.

The truth is enough in itself.

Do not think I came with peace,
I have come with the sword.
Do not think I can be bought with gold,
I scoff at glitter and flair.

Contentious, a horse of war.
Contentious, a vehement flame.
Contentious, a raging plague.
Contentious, the desire for war.

Truth has become a sledgehammer,
That burns in my hand.
To crush the Tower of Babel,
And grind it to dust.

Truth does not fear death,
For truth can never die.

Do not think I came with peace,
I have come with the sword.
Do not think I can be bought with gold,
I scoff at glitter and flair.

Contentious, a horse of war.
Contentious, a burning flame.
Contentious, a roaring fire!
Contentious, the desire for war.
