Valkyries of Valhalla

**Verse 1** Above the smoke of the burning field Through shattered bone and broken shield They circle low on wings of storm In mist and iron, their shadows form No mortal eye can see the flight Of those who judge the final fight. **Verse 2** Silver armor, cold as the stars Healing the spirit, ignoring the scars They watch the crimson river flow Deciding who stays and who must go With spears of lightning and hearts of stone They gather the seeds the gods have sown. **Pre-Chorus** Hear the thunder of the phantom hooves As the pulse of the living slowly moves To the rhythm of the iron sky It is a glorious day to DIE! **Chorus** Valkyries! Sisters of the golden hall Valkyries! Answering the hero’s call From the mud of Midgard to the gates of light They carry the brave through the endless night Choosers of the slain, the fierce and free Guardians of our destiny! **Verse 3** Through the gates where the Einherjar feast Released from the burden of the beast The mead is poured by hands of grace In the shadow of the Allfather’s face But peace is a dream, a moment’s breath Before they return to the dance of death. **Bridge** Ride! Through the clouds of fire! Rise! From the funeral pyre! Valhalla awaits the souls of the bold In stories of blood and legends of old! **Breakdown** BLOOD ON THE GRASS! STEEL IN THE HEART! THE MAIDENS DESCEND... TO TEAR LIFE APART! CHOOSE! ME! **Pre-Chorus** Hear the thunder of the phantom hooves As the pulse of the living slowly moves To the rhythm of the iron sky It is a glorious day to DIE! **Chorus** Valkyries! Sisters of the golden hall Valkyries! Answering the hero’s call From the mud of Midgard to the gates of light They carry the brave through the endless night Choosers of the slain, the fierce and free Guardians of our destiny! **Outro** The wings beat silence... The field grows cold... The chosen have risen... To the halls of gold.
