Wolfhunter 4: The Longest Oath（版本 2）

Verse 1

I woke up with the wind in my teeth, (uh)

Frozen ash where the village used to breathe.

Aesir gods left nothing but stone and bone

Blood-iron on my wrist like a chain

Every raid's written on this same plain. A sword to the ribs through a shield of oak. The ravens come calling before I take a step.

I don't hunt wolves — I'm the one they call wolf. (uh)

So put your cross in your chest and let me get my gold.

Pre-Chorus

Who's left after Ragnarok draws near? (near!) Who takes the oath when the whole world disappears? (disappears!) Let the wind howl through empty streets, (empty) I keep my word before it freezes to steel.

Verse 2

Odin's ravens flew off a hundred years ago

I'm still standing where the north winds blow. They told me I'd burn when the worlds went mad. I built a fire out of frozen thread instead.

Every legend ends with one man's name

When the great wolf swallows the last star's flame, (flame!) I'll ride the longship through the gates of Valhalla, (Valhalla) and that's where I'll make them call me. (uh)

I don't want your gold — I already own it.

Put my name on every grave that's cold as stone. The longest oath is one you swear to yourself.

Chorus

I'm the last wolfhunter in a world gone gray (gray!), I take the iron and I throw it away (away!). No raven needed when the thunder speaks my name (my name!), Skál! — we ride for what's been lost in the flame! (Hu-ha!)

Verse 3

I traded my shield for a war-horn's sound.

Now the fjord is quiet and the ravens turn around. They don't come hunting me no more because I've taken all that there is to take.

The wolf they feared now walks alone on the shore, (shore!), Where every great man goes when his honor's broke. So I raise my horn in a last cold toast. I'm still alive where every other legend lost.

Pre-Chorus

Who's left after Ragnarok draws near? (near!) Who takes the oath when the whole world disappears? (disappears!) Let the wind howl through empty streets, (empty) I keep my word before it freezes to steel.

Verse 4

They say I'm a relic of an older way (older), one man's legend in a world gone grey.

But when the great wolf comes for me at last, (last!) I want every raven in the land to know That Wolfhunter still stands where his oath is made of stone. (uh)

I don't need Odin's ravens anymore.

I've got my own shadow watching through the door.

Chorus

I'm the last wolfhunter in a world gone gray (gray!), I take the iron and I throw it away (away!). No raven needed when the thunder speaks my name (my name!), Skál! — we ride for what's been lost in the flame! (Hu-ha!)

Bridge

I am the silence between every two great wars.

When the frost bites deep I'm where legends are born. They called me wolf because I'd run and never turn back. Now the wolves themselves know who to call when their honor's at stake. I don't wait for Ragnarok to prove my name — (prove) Every battle, every wound, that's how I stay the same.

Outro

I still hunt the wolves... of my own mind.
