Valkyrie's Lament
​Verse
I glide forlornly over fields
Where warriors clash and fate now yields
On our whim, the battle's won
My flight balletic 'neath the sun
Detached from all the strife and pain
I choose the worthy from the slain
Upon the field where heroes sprawl
Guide those of worth to Odin's hall
​
Chorus
Bound betwixt the realms alone
To shepherd men to Odin's throne
Yearning for more Earthly ties
Amidst the raven's plaintive cries
A tempest's grace, a bond now scorned
Shunned by Valhalla where I was sworn
Yet in my heart your flame still burned
Our foolish love, forever adjourned
​
Verse
One battle stirred within my breast
A hero fought, he stood the test
I picked him out for Odin's side
But fate's cruel hand, he could not bide
Where once a void, now love's lament
Descend to choose, my heart is rent
Valhalla's gates, we should have flown
Yet I couldn't leave you there alone
​
Chorus
Bound betwixt the realms alone
To shepherd men to Odin's throne
Yearning for more Earthly ties
Amidst the raven's plaintive cries
A tempest's grace, a bond now scorned
Shunned by Valhalla where I was sworn
Yet in my heart your flame still burned
Our foolish love, forever adjourned
​
Verse
Alone with you on blood-soaked land
I build a mound with trembling hand
Cursed we became, a tale of dread
You turned a draug, by vengeance led
Until they came with stones and flame
Destroyed our rest, defiled your name
Collected up, then cursed and burned
To Hel's dark realm, your soul was turned
​
Chorus
Bound betwixt the realms alone
To shepherd men to Odin's throne
Yearning for more Earthly ties
Amidst the raven's plaintive cries
A tempest's grace, a bond now scorned
Shunned by Valhalla where I was sworn
Yet in my heart your flame still burned
Our foolish love, forever adjourned
