Hrothgar’s blood in my veins, the old curse sings, The wolf awakens where the axe bell rings, Claw in my marrow, fang in my breath, I walk with my brothers on the edge of death. [verse 1] Hear the howl beneath the skin, The beast that waits, the wolf within, Fury chained but straining tight, A soul at war with endless night. [chorus] The Wolf Within Fangs of sorrow, claws of sin, Fight the beast or let it win, I am broken, yet I’m kin [verse 2] Steel and frost, my battle prayer, But shadows stalk me everywhere, A brother’s eyes grow wild, untamed, His name is lost, yet still I name. Can I cage the storm inside? Or will I drown in the tide? [chorus] The Wolf Within Oath is carved upon my skin, Blood of Russ, we’re bound in sin, Tear the void, yet never win [bridge] Runes of Fenris burn my soul, Savage hunger takes control, Brother, hear my warning cry: Tame the beast or watch me die! [chorus] The Wolf Within We are legion, not just men Fangs of Russ, we bleed as kin Lose ourselves, but still we win! Hrothgar’s blood still burns in me, Wolf and man, eternally.
