Loki's Rhapsody

It's as good as impossible to think when you're down on your knees, chained like a fool
For all these years, how and when would I get the chance to cut my hair?
Without beard on my face, I'll leave my wall and go home to them, and with a high five
I'll be bad. An old family friend who shows his turncoat face
 
And perhaps two children get good ideas
Not noticing a bit of bad character, forgetting to focus
Getting snowed in for more than fifteen minutes - give me the piano
Listen to how it crunches when I smack æsir into pieces
There they hang in clusters, lazing and fooling around
You've gotta start being careful, Thor
You effeminate, charming tenor
But I know where you live
 
I'm not even bitter or angry
I just have an incredible desire to hurt everyone
So I set out...
Wanna tag along?
 
Wait, what's that? Is that homemade baked goods?
Nah, it's the sweet scent of defeat
Making the gods uneasy will be the easiest think
And with the most magical stroke, I force the Yule days back into darkness
Patting cakes which unfortunately taste of defeat
Hey Odin, you're a laughingstock in your ruin, you one-eyed dwarf rabbits
Shaking like a mutt when I enjoy myself
Ho, ho, ho! I wonder who's trapped in a corner on retreat. A linguistic concoction
Soon, a new epoch begins with a guy named Loki
 
I'm not even bitter or angry
I just have an incredible desire to hurt everyone
So I set out
 
You can't just throw family out like that
Especially not when they're also born as a god
Goosebumps
This is enough! Sing along! Run wild! God shock! Ragnarok...
 
I'm not even bitter or angry
I just have an incredible desire to hurt everyone
You can't just throw family out like that
Especially not when they're also born as a god
Goosebumps
 
It's as good as impossible to think when you're down on your knees, chained like a fool
 
Shhh...

Yule in Valhal

Versions: #2
In a freezing winter wood
Where memories of the past pretended to sleep
Snow falls from cotton clouds
Here begins a tale1
 
Long shadows in moonlight
The night hides who you are
Enemies meet in fateful battle
The wind whispers of the last day
 
Keep your cool for just a moment
Out where the wild dare
And human children who know:
Evil is defeated with love
 
Travelling into the dark
A universe falling free
But hope brings light in Midgard
And Yule in Valhal
May the heroic deeds of friends
Show the gods and us:
There are better things to live for than fighting
 
Light catches an enemy
Removes doubt from a soul
If he shows himself to be a good friend
We will have peace again
 
Keep your cool for just a moment
Out where the wild dare
And human children who know:
Evil is defeated with love
 
Travelling into the dark
A universe falling free
But hope brings light in Midgard
And Yule in Valhal
May the heroic deeds of friends
Show the gods and us:
 
Are you fighting for yourself
Riding alone on your horse
No-one shows up the day
You celebrate your victory
Rather fall apart near the end
Than win alone and sad
 
Travelling into the dark
A universe falling free
But hope brings light in Midgard
And Yule in Valhal
May the heroic deeds of friends
Show the gods and us:
There are better things to live for than fighting
 
  • 1. 'Eventyr' can be translated as both 'fairy tale', 'adventure' or just 'tale' depending on context. I chose to go with 'tale' because of the vaguesness of this specific context.

[Tyr] In our battle against a jötunn 1 army

Being worshipped is a fun game

Believe in what you will
In love and luck in games untill
