"The Shieldmaiden" lyrics

One last time, learning to live once again
After saving myself from these demons of mine
I escaped my own prison as I couldn't see
All my life I was carried away with the stream
After losing myself in the dead of the night

Away with the stream
The dead of the night

Stormy is the wind that we walked, weeping our tales
Memories of a dawn burned up too late

Through the stars we'll rise again
Bringing our fire over the land
Standing proud until the end

Hurt me, I'll bleed
It won't break my will
I'm not afraid of this fighting
As long as I breathe
Walking on the fields
Holding my shield so they all can see
The lightning that shines over me

Out of mind, out of soul
Far away from the places I know
Far away from the people I always believed in
And I'll never see once again
I'm the daughter of hatred and snow
I was raised by the storm and I'm living
To serve my own pride
