First Kill Lyrics by Amon Amarth

The Pursuit of Vikings: 25 Years in the Eye of the Storm

2016

[Verse 1]
The first man I killed was the earl's right-hand man
When he came to take her away
I ran his own sword straight through his throat
And then I stood there, watching him fade

The first blood I spilled was the blood of a Varg
I had to wipe his smile away
I was not yet a man, nor was I a boy
But still, I made that bastard pay

[Verse 2]
So I left him there, on the stable floor
Bathing in a pool of his own blood
My one and only choice was to flee this land
To leave this wretched place for good

[Chorus]
I am an outcast
All alone
I'm a nomad without home

I am an outlaw
I'm disowned
And I am no man's son

[Verse 3]
Through the cold midwinter nights
On a southbound winding path
The stars and moon my only light
And the earl's men closing fast

I swore that I'd return;
That I would see him burn
Oh, I will live it in my dreams
The smell, the blood, his dying screams

[Bridge]
To my father I was dead, he took his hand from me
He drove me away, I was shunned
My one and only choice was to leave this land
To become the prey that they would hunt

[Chorus]
I am an outcast
All alone
I'm a nomad without home

I am an outlaw
I'm disowned
And I am no man's son

I am an outcast
All alone
I'm a nomad without home

I am an outlaw
I'm disowned
And I am no man's son
