A reimagined version of one of my old Skogshallen songs.
This was known as the "cursed song" because for many years I could not rightfully finish it to my liking. It went through multiple iterations until I learned that I could simply make as many versions as I liked. This is what it means to be in touch with your music. It does not need to be the final or only permutation you create. I may even make another some day but for now this is a snapshot of where I am at today. I will leave the poetic lyrics from the song below for you to enjoy and think on.

Beyond the fields of snow
where gods and giants roam
beyond the shores of mortal seas

In ancient stories told
of dwarves and cursed gold
the realm of dreams and mysteries

We have come from far to the north
made our homes where the giants dwell
carved our runes upon the stones
where warriors died and friends have fell

It is no use to cry
even the strongest die
so let your spirit be your guide

Beyond the veil of Midgard
beyond the veil of life
youll see what lies inside the mind

A fire burns inside
so bright when all is lost
our bodies burned in ships shall lie

and words of deeds remain
we leave our mortal pains
our ashes cast into the sky

So let loose the tides of war
waves of blood shall ebb and flow
with every sweep of mighty oar
and every stroke a hammer blow

It is no use to cry
even the strongest die
so live your life not holding back

Beyond the veil of Midgard
beyond the veil of death
as embers slowly fade to black

Hope you enjoy :)
