This is in fact a Viking funeral dirge. It's lyrical start is in beautiful alternating iambic septameter. The song tells the story of a warrior who dwells in (the ever popular) Valhalla at a time when he was needed by his people.
Musically, the first part of Coarouselambra tells the story of these people that are too busy with their own lore and its telling to heed any sort of danger.

The third uptempo synth-heavy part makes oblique reference to his resurrection.
