“Wings Over the Ashes”

“Wings Over the Ashes” Verse 1 Steel sings low in the cooling ground My breath is smoke, the war dies down Blood in the snow, sky split wide I laugh at the end — I did not hide Shields are broken, banners torn I fall where legends are reborn Pre-Chorus Drums go quiet, ravens wait Fate unlocks the final gate Chorus Lift me up through fire and cold White wings shining, eyes of gold Carry me past fear and pain Over worlds I could not name If this is death, I stand tall Take me home to Valhalla Verse 2 Her armor hums like distant thunder A calm that splits the dark asunder No mercy asked, no prayer said Only truth in the blood I shed She knows my name, knows my scars Points beyond the broken stars Pre-Chorus No chains remain, no debts to pay Only songs of yesterday Chorus Lift me up through fire and cold White wings shining, eyes of gold Carry me past fear and pain Over worlds I could not name If this is death, I stand tall Take me home to Valhalla Bridge I see the hall, the endless flame Heroes rise when called by name Mead pours bright, blades shine clean Every loss now forged as meaning I was not spared — I was true That was all I had to do Break No kneeling now No regret Only the weight of honor left Final Chorus Lift me up, the war is done Under stars and setting suns Let the living tell my tale I rode the storm, I did not fail If this is death, then let me fall Into the halls of Valhalla Outro Her wings fade into northern light I walk forward — welcomed, not saved A warrior still… Just braver now.
