They came riding down the slopes Five fearless men prepared to fight We heard with fear the rumbling earth In the mid-day light Surprised we saw all terrified The brave northmen's run The fearless five with power ride Attacking us in the mid-day sun Their charge was fast, no alarm was sound They broke right through our lines I felt the cut it threw me to the ground And now I feel has come my time I lie here in my blood And see my family get killed I feel abandoned by my god I fear death's chill I see Hel's gates Towering high And dark are they I don't want to die Oh no! I was wrong Denied the true Gods And now I'm doomed I trusted foreign men And their god's son But now when I need them They are gone I see Hel's gates Towering high And dark are they I die! They ride…
what is this song about ?? im not all too clear on the subject of vikings and christianty which i think is what this is about did they convert to it or something?
S.C.O.T it's about 5 men who fight in battle and all of them die. One going to hell because he didn't believe in oden. And he watches as his comrades go to Valhalla
Very wrong. It's about a christian soldier who dies in a viking raid and realizes while he is dying he worshiped the wrong god, and feels abandoned by the white Christ, Hence the name Abandoned
They came riding down the slopes Five fearless men prepared to fight We heard with fear the rumbling earth In the mid-day light Surprised we saw all terrified The brave northmen's run The fearless five with power ride Attacking us in the mid-day sun Their charge was fast, no alarm was sound They broke right through our lines I felt the cut it threw me to the ground And now I feel has come my time I lie here in my blood And see my family get killed I feel abandoned by my god I fear death's chill I see Hel's gates Towering high And dark are they I don't want to die Oh no! I was wrong Denied the true gods And now I'm doomed I trusted foreign men And their god's son But now when I need them They are gone I see Hel's gates Towering high And dark are they I die! They ride across the planes And punish those of false belief All resistance is in vain As they caress them with cold steel They are the punishers And they will never bend They are power the five of them From Asgard they are sent The power they have in all they do The Christians non will feel No one can escape them no They will make them kneel Their fight is through, they must return No one here survived And as the blood red sky begins to burn To Valhall they will ride
