Blood on the Fjord Line

Verse

Salt wind cracking on the black rock shore

Your longship shadow, I won't see you more

Iron chain rattling loose from the bow

Runes carved deep, I trace them now

Torches drowning where the tide comes in

Ash and amber on your weathered skin

Drums on the cliffside, one last beat

Snow keeps falling on our footprint street

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear the horn across the grey

Every wave that drags the light away

Something in the dark still holds the flame

Chorus

There's blood on the fjord line

Where the water meets the sky and mine

Say goodbye but the fire won't die

There's blood on the fjord line

Carve my name where the old gods stood

Bittersweet in the ice and blood

Dawn is coming, I feel it climb

There's blood on the fjord line

Verse

Wolves are singing from the frozen ridge

Half your heartbeat still crossing the bridge

Bone and antler hung on the door

This is the shore we won't walk anymore

Northern lights bend over broken stone

Painting green on the dark alone

I stand taller with the ash in my hair

Something rising up out of despair

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear the horn across the grey

Every wave that drags the light away

Something in the dark still holds the flame

Chorus

There's blood on the fjord line

Where the water meets the sky and mine

Say goodbye but the fire won't die

There's blood on the fjord line

Carve my name where the old gods stood

Bittersweet in the ice and blood

Dawn is coming, I feel it climb

There's blood on the fjord line

Bridge

Let the ash fall, let the ember rise

I won't bury the light in your eyes

Every ending is a door thrown wide

The gods are calling from the other side

No more mourning what the water took

Every scar becomes another book

Chorus

There's blood on the fjord line

Where the water meets the sky and mine

Say goodbye but the fire won't die

There's blood on the fjord line

Carve my name where the old gods stood

Bittersweet in the ice and blood

Dawn is coming, I feel it climb

There's blood on the fjord line
