Holy Shire – Midgard Lyrics

Rock

In the distance beyond mist
And ancient dreams
Midgard laid with its portent
Of terrible fate
Floating on the deepest ocean
Between hell and heaven above

Tossed into the great ocean
The giant serpent crawled
With its tail in its mouth
Guardian of the world
Banish by the father of the gods

Humans lived their mortal lives
And died at the behest of the gods
Who forgot their sons
Struggling for a bit of joy
Then threat arose
Like a ghost dripping blood

The battle at the end of the world
(At the end of the world)
A new earth to be reborn
(To be reborn)
The battle at the end of the world
(At the end of the world)
A new earth to be reborn
Midgard (Midgard)
Midgard
Midgard (Midgard)
Midgard

But the day had come
Fear danced with the waves
The monster had awakened in the abyss

The giant serpent
Soared from the sea
Jaws spurting foam and water
Raging against men and deities
The monster faced the thunder god
Spreading poison on land and sea
Rousing the greater storm
Midgard sank into the ocean
And the strongest god fell along with his foe
Thor staggered nine steps back and fell dead

The battle at the end of the world
(At the end of the world)
A new earth to be reborn
(To be reborn)
The battle at the end of the world
(At the end of the world)
A new earth to be reborn
Midgard (Midgard)
Midgard
Midgard (Midgard)
Midgard
