No mercy

Riding down the road I wonder what is truth and what is lie?
Washed my hands of blood but they were never clean and dry
An old man asked the reason why
I laughed and looked him dead in the eye and said

Odin told me there's no mercy for the slain
Die fighting- fight and ye shall rise again
In the end it's all the same
In the end there is no mercy for the slain

So you ask me if I believe that this end shall come to pass
I tell you faith is strong but flesh it is not built to last
Seek your answers as I've sought mine
We'll all die if we are old or in our prime

Odin told me there's no mercy for the slain
Die fighting- fight and ye shall rise again
In the end it's all the same
In the end there is no mercy for the slain

And I could hide under a rock and hope death passes by
I would not live an instant longer
I can meet life with blade bared and battle cry
I know my life will just get stronger

Odin told me there's no mercy for the slain
Die fighting- fight and ye shall rise again
In the end it's all the same
In the end there is no mercy for the slain
