Our Anthem

By HeadpatSlut

Our Anthem



We Make an oath, we swear it now-
By word and Blood bound to this vow-
We promise that we'll carry on-
Enslave the Night and conquer Dawn.

We make this vow upon this seal-
Avenge our dead with vengeful steel-
With Sword and Axe and Hammer strong-
Immortal skalds shall sing our song.

When they assault, we'll beat them back-
And turn their Golden days to Black-
Outnumbered, we will beat the odds-
And if we must, we'll battle Gods.

And When we know we're bound to loose-
Death is what we proudly choose-
We'll die while laughing hard as Hell-
Our oath fulfilled, we say farwell.

  • A former member wrote: did you mean to have "our our"? Nice imagery...there is something of nobility here.... I think you may want "we'll" beat them back. Why are we bound to lose (not "loose") ?
