My viking funeral rock song, I love the lyrics and the middle 8, however I think I may be a little off way away from Bruce Dickinson style vocals... maybe in a few years.

Funeral


My war-battered body it lies on a bed
In battle I fell, an axe to my head
With swords at my feet of men I have slayed
My wife by my side, a sacrifice made

Archers fire arrows of fire in the night
Their target they find, my death ship alights
My servants now burn my wife screams in fright
At my Viking burial, a warrior’s right

To Valhalla we sail
To Valhalla we sail
Valkyries bear me up
Valkryies take me home

I’ve raped and I’ve pillaged 'most all that I’ve seen
So I know the God’s will look kindly at me
Odin will pay tribute to those I have bled
And Thor will rise up and repeat what I’ve said

To Valhalla we sail
To Valhalla we sail
Valkyries bear me up
Valkryies take me home

The women I’ve ruined and the men I have wrecked
Will put me in good stead for gaining respect
From the God’s who I worshippped as I took my last breath
As I join them forever and I burn in this ship of death

To Valhalla we sail
To Valhalla we sail
Valkyries bear me up
Valkryies take me home
Valkyries bear me up
Valkryies take me hom
