Mead of Eternity
Galactic Quest for Eternal Libations
Lyrics
Returning from battle
Returning from a battle
Our thirst has grown strong
Expressing a growing thirst after the battle
We head to the tavern
Heading to a tavern as a place of belonging
That's where we belong
Highlighting the connection of warriors to a tavern
Building a tower from kegs that we've drained
Symbolizing the construction of a tower using emptied kegs
Sharing our stories of enemies slain
Sharing stories of defeated enemies
We, we drink and fight
Emphasizing the combination of drinking and fighting
´Til break of dawn
Drinking and fighting until the break of dawn
Now our kegs are dry
Noting the depletion of kegs
Sleipner grew a horn
Describing a mythical creature (Sleipner) growing a horn
He's now a unicorn
Transforming Sleipner into a unicorn
Set out on a quest to refill our kegs
Embarking on a quest to refill the kegs
With burning hooves we cross the galaxies
Using vivid imagery of burning hooves and galaxy crossing
To find the mead of eternity
Searching for the mythical "mead of eternity"
Arriving in the land owned by giants of frost
Reaching a land owned by frost giants
Raiding Jotunheim for the mead that was lost
Raiding Jotunheim for the lost mead
Slaying all we see
Engaging in battle, slaying all encountered for glory and mead
For glory and the mead
Expressing the willingness to go to extremes for the mead
Giants heads will fly
Symbolizing victory with the image of giants' heads flying
Until the day we die
Committing to the cause until death
We, we drink and fight
Reiterating the combination of drinking and fighting
´Til break of dawn
Drinking and fighting until the break of dawn
Now our kegs are dry
Noting the depletion of kegs once again
Sleipner grew a horn
Repeating the transformation of Sleipner into a unicorn
He's now a unicorn
Reiterating the quest to refill the kegs
Set out on a quest to refill our kegs
Reusing imagery of burning hooves and galaxy crossing
With burning hooves we cross the galaxies
Re-emphasizing the search for the mead of eternity
To find the mead of eternity
Describing the continuing quest with the same imagery
Sleipner grew a horn
Repeating the transformation of Sleipner into a unicorn
He's now a unicorn
Reiterating the ongoing quest to refill the kegs
Set out on a quest to refill our kegs
Reusing imagery of burning hooves and galaxy crossing
With burning hooves we cross the galaxies
Re-emphasizing the search for the mead of eternity
To find the mead of eternity
Describing the persistent journey to find the mythical mead
