Once upon a time
When I was younger
On a hellride without brakes
Nothing in the world
Could still my hunger
No matter what the stakes
I was the viking
I saw the light
The force was rising
Shining bright
I was the soldier without faith
The black star's glowing rage
Running wild
I was the wild one
Not a man, just a child
Running wild
I was the wild one
Wild, wild, wild one
Not a man, just a child
Running wild
Things were simple then
I had no worries
Never stopping for red lights
Invincible in mind
Speeding through lide
Just another barfight
I was the viking
I saw the light
The force was rising
Shining bright
I was the soldier without faith
The black star's glowing rage
Running wild
I was the wild one
Not a man, just a child
Running wild
I was the wild one
Wild, wild, wild one
Not a man, just a child
Running wild
I was the wild one
Wild, wild, wild one
Not a man, just a child
Running wild
I was the wild one
Wild, wild, wild one
Not a man, just a child
Running wild
