[Intro] Come forward... Every road... Ends here. --- [Verse 1] I know the weight that mortals bear. The silent grief. The whispered prayer. The tired hands. The final breath. I've walked beside the steps of death. Most who enter cross my door. Find a peace they've earned before. Loved ones waiting, fires burn bright. Ancient faces bathed in light. No harsh judgment waits for these. Only long-deserved release. Lay your burdens. Rest at last. Honor carried from your past. --- [Chorus] I am Hel... I know your name. Not with honor... But with shame. No horn shall rise. No toast be made. No skáld shall sing... The debts you paid. The worthy rest... Within my hall. The false, the faithless... Lose it all. No fire burns. No voices call. Forgotten forever... Nothing at all. --- [Verse 2] You sold your brothers for your gain. Left them bleeding in the rain. Spoke of courage, turned to flee. When fear demanded loyalty. Your promises dissolved like snow. Your honor died long years ago. Every lie became your shield. Every truth you would not wield. Now you stand before my throne. Finding you are truly alone. Even silence turns away. Nothing follows you today. --- [Bridge] Did you think... Death would hide... The life... You lived? --- [Verse 3] The worthy feast though not all fall. Some never sought Valhöll's hall. Yet every soul who lived with grace... Found a welcome in this place. But those who mocked the sacred trust. Who chose betrayal over us. Who bowed to greed and crawled through shame... Have only themselves to blame. No child will learn your deeds with pride. No skáld will keep your tale alive. No kin shall lift a drinking horn. As though your life had not been born. --- [Final Chorus] I am Hel... I know your name. Not with honor... But with shame. No horn shall rise. No toast be made. No skáld shall sing... The debts you paid. The worthy rest... Within my hall. The false, the faithless... Lose it all. No fire burns. No voices call. Forgotten forever... Nothing at all. --- [Outro] Honor lives... Long after breath. Cowards perish... Twice in death.
