Lyrics for ...And Soon the World Will Cease to Be

The northern wind brings snow and ice Humans starve and freeze The Fimbul winter has arrived And soon the world will cease to be Brother will be brother's bane No one shall be spared All will die, none remain That is mankind's share The southern sphere is set ablaze Muspel's fire is set free The sun is on its final chase And soon the world will cease to be Across the western sky he runs A wolf so grim and mean Devours the eternal sun And soon the world will cease to be The North Star falls from the sky Into the deep cold sea The first of all to fall and die And soon the world will cease to be Will cease to be Muspel's flames lick the sky Nidhögg eats the dead The Aesir meet in hall up high And Oden quests Mimer's head Land is swallowed by the waves Rocks and mountains break Dead men on the path to Hel And Yggdrasil quakes From the east comes a ship Loke holds the oar A demon army with swords that rip Will join the final war The army of the dead arrives Heimdal blows his horn Calling gods out to die Before the world can be reborn Reborn
