about

‘Viking Blood’ is one of the more conceptual songs on the album. It portrays the idea of giving rise to a ruthless nordic inner spirit that won’t let others get in the way. Fundamentally taking no shit from anyone and holding your own.

lyrics

I’ll take your fucking gold
and claim what is mine tonight
now watch the drama unfold
as I set sail
You'll do just as you're told
while I chose what to ignite
and weep as you watch it glow
your tragic tale

And when all is said and done
you were far from safe
far from safe (far from safe)
and when I destroy lives
it's just in this Viking blood

You can save the apologies
when all your deeds are done
you are no match for this cold
nordic soul
Now doing just as you’re told
whilst giving up the fight
and weak from the begging show
worn and frail

And when all is said and done
you were far from safe
far from safe (far from safe)
and when I destroy lives
it's just in this Viking blood
