The beast above men
Rises from its cage
To destroy what we'd built
And bring us Ragnarök
The world we've known
Is dying in agony
Our true nature
Is finally exposed
Extermination
Human suicide
Set the world ablaze
Take down the Yiggdrassil
And leave only barren lands
Sól and Máni
Will quietly stare
How the sentient race
Kills itself
We summon Fenrir
From within our souls
And those who survive
Shall envy the dead
Extermination
Human suicide
Set the world ablaze
Take down the Yiggdrassil
And leave only barren lands
Extermination
Death in fire
The winds
Sweep away
Everything
Mankind will meet its end in flames
And leave behind
Ruins and badlands barren for ages
Scorched and radiated
Survivors will face the winter
Like no one has ever known
Then melting snow will expose the desert
We turned our world into
The winds
Sweep away
Everything
On their way
Ashen rain
Falls to Earth
And covers
Its burning wounds
We were Odin
We are Surtr
We were beginning
We are the end
We were Odin
We are Surtr
We were beginning
We are the end
We brought death
To our kind
We are Fenrir
We start the Twilight
