The Stairs Of The World - Lyrics - Viking
Vikings were Germanic Norse seafarers, speaking the Old Norse language, who raided and traded from their Scandinavian homelands across wide areas of northern and central Europe, as well as European Russia, during the late 8th to late 11th centuries. The term is also commonly extended in modern English and other vernaculars to the inhabitants of Viking home communities during what has become known as the Viking Age. This period of Norse military, mercantile and demographic expansion constitutes an important element in the early medieval history of Scandinavia, the British Isles, France, Kievan Rus' and Sicily.

Here you can see the world alive/ all engaged in its different works/ with the people on both my sides/ I like hearing their colourful words/ I see a boy who's kissing a girl/ and she looks right at me/ She wants to say "you are alone/ you can't receive what I can feel"// Why do you want to make me suffer?/ Why do you want to make me cry?/ I have done nothing bad to you,/ and you, you don't, you don't even know me// When I turn into Ash on the Stairs of the World/ I see all the people come and go/ When I turn into Ash on the Stairs of the World/ I watch a horrible show, I watch a horrible show// This is the place where a promise is told/ and I wonder if it will be holden/ where a misunderstood white dress/ is sign of faithfully love confessed/ Where all races meet in a crazy dance/ full of colours and sounds, religions and lands/ I know that you all men will pass here someday/ and something you will think, you'll understand// Will you go back to your homeland?/ And will you take what you have learned?/ All this singing and dancing and singing and dancing/ is the diversity of lives/ and this keeps this world alive// When I turn... // All this moving and speaking and burning and freshening/ is the heart of the Cosmos/ We are self-moving pawns in a game/ We are like a picture that knows how to draw itself/ The heart will beat along/ if you come and dance on the Stairs of the World
