Don't call my name in battle - it's not wise
Do not distract me when you see a new soul in these eyes.
For when the War God fills this flesh I wear,
I am no more your friend, I am the spirit of the bear.
Don't call my name in battle - stand away
For I will never hear you, but another creature may.
It never sees a friend, but only foes -
Just count the bodies flying where this taken body goes.
Don't call my name in battle - wait the time
Until I fall and rise again, with eyes you know are mine.
And then perhaps we'll rest and talk of home
But you'll not be surprised to see how much I walk alone.
Do not distract me when you see a new soul in these eyes.
For when the War God fills this flesh I wear,
I am no more your friend, I am the spirit of the bear.
Don't call my name in battle - stand away
For I will never hear you, but another creature may.
It never sees a friend, but only foes -
Just count the bodies flying where this taken body goes.
Don't call my name in battle - wait the time

And then perhaps we'll rest and talk of home
But you'll not be surprised to see how much I walk alone.
