Verse 1
Steel meets skin beneath the rain,
Thunder calls the gods again.
Shields collide, the skies ignite,
Odin guides our axe through night.
Blood and fire crown the plain,
Honor carved in death’s domain.

[Instrumental Break – 6 sec; fast drum fill + tremolo riff + cymbal roll into next verse]

⸻

Verse 2
Wind and frost upon the shore,
Drums of doom forever roar.
Axes shine with morning’s breath,
Brothers chant the song of death.
No retreat, the fates implore,
Glory waits forevermore.

[Chorus – melodic lead over gallop drums, wide choir harmony]
Hammerstorm – the dawn ignites,
Blades of thunder cut the night.
We stand tall, our fate reborn,
Forever bound by Hammerstorm.

[Chorus – fast tempo, syncopated rhythm guitars + layered group chants]
Hammerstorm! – Strike! Strike!
Storm of gods, arise tonight!
Hammerstorm! – Burn! Burn!
Let the false world crash and turn!

Iron breath and burning skies,
Battle rage in warrior eyes.
Steel and smoke consume the field,
No man flees, no soul will yield.
Echoed cries through death arise,
Valhalla claims the brave who dies.

Wolves of night, the sky turns red,
Ravens circle over the dead.
Ships of ash on oceans burn,
North winds twist and tides return.
The end begins, but none have fled,
Our fate is sung, our blood is shed.
