I crossed the fjord with the blade held high
And my mother was winter, my father was war
I was born for the fire on a blood-soaked shore
Feel the ground shake, feel the longships roar
Every wound in my body beats like a drum for more
Call my name when the thunder breaks
I am the girl no grave could take
Shield in my hand, wrath in my soul
I turn cold pain into Viking gold
Hey, yeah, hey
Let the raven sing
Hey, yeah, hey
I need no king, mm, mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm
Mm, mm-mm-mm, mm-mm
The wolf at my heel, the moon on my blade
I dance with the dead where legends are made
No chain can hold me, no crown owns me
I drink from the storm and I set fear free
Hear the bones ring, hear the black tides call
Every breath I'm taking, sounds like war in the heart
Call my name when the thunder breaks
I am the girl no grave could take
Shield in my hand, wrath in my soul
I turn cold pain into Viking gold
Hey, yeah, hey
Let the raven sing
Hey, yeah, hey
I need no king
If the sky turns iron (hey)
I will strike it bright (hey)
If the gods stay silent, I will scream through the night
No altar, no master (no)
No mercy, no chains, I was forged in the blizzard
Now Valhalla knows my name
Call my name when the thunder breaks
I am the girl no grave could take
Shield in my hand, wrath in my soul
I turn cold pain into Viking gold
Hey, yeah, hey
Let the raven sing (hey)
Hey, yeah, hey
I need no king
Hey, yeah, hey
Let the battle ring (hey)
Hey, yeah, hey
Crown the shield-maiden queen
Mm, mm, mm (oh, oh-oh, oh)
Mm, mm, mm
Runes on my skin, storm in my breath
Oh, I was kissed by the edge of death
