Bláfjall

I never saw death in your eyes
I never saw it, he reflects in me
He grips me tight and won't let go

He dares

I never saw him born in you
I never saw him creeping up on me
He sneaks up on me like a scentless gas
He sneaks

Oh, since then I've been scared
Oh, since then I've been a fool
Oh, since then I've been tormented
The reverence got judged

Oh, since I became a man
Oh, since I found my courage
I've stepped into the fear
I've accepted death's call

Never found the sickness, the sickness in you
Couldn't find the spirit's echo in you
I'm lost, out in the void

I never saw death in your eyes
I never saw the doom being born in me
It beautifies in me, it mocks me
Oh, so sly

I dreamed so often I rose from the ruins
To the fjord I held on anew
At the root of the mountains, and at the glacier's grace
And wake for the last time

I never saw death in your eyes
I never saw it, he reflects in me
He grips me tight and won't let go
He dares
