(I don’t think Sheryl understands how Valkyries work, but hey she deserves some slack for writing the lyrics on the walls of Alcatraz with her own blood.)
Wind shakes the horizon Is the blaze still burning? Shivering, I stand at the entrance to the world Until my feelings reach you, I can’t die.
These are the wings of a valkyrie. Appearing before the wounded a soldier, a valkyrie. A vision of his beloved swoops down Crossing a rainbow bridge to guide him. Valkyrie…
Even if we disobey fate, Even if we’re torn apart my tears, Even if dawn breaks on a lifeless world, I’ll love you. Wearing armor made of light, soaring across the sky— A valkyrie, with wings of farewell.
Who are those eyes looking for now? Who are those lips calling out to? I’ll keep singing, believing we could meet, Until I’ve atoned for everything, until I’ve given everything.
These are the wings of a valkyrie Appearing before the collapsed soldier, a valkyrie. A vision of his beloved swoops down To stop him from melting into the blue of the sky Valkyrie…
With my own hands I cobbled together sadness I head east, grasping a seed that will grow out of rubble into pride.
Beloved, beloved, let me be clear, A valkyrie…
Crossing a rainbow bridge to guide him, A valkyrie…
Racing across the blue sky The storms of time howling in my face Always, I will love you, I will love you.
Take a breath. Let’s go choose our future.
Valkyrie… I meet with the wind Someday I’ll bid it farewell. Even if dawn breaks on a lifeless world, I’m alive. Wearing armor made of light, soaring across the sky— A valkyrie, with wings of farewell.

Wind shakes the horizon
Is the blaze still burning?
Shivering, I stand at the entrance to the world
Until my feelings reach you, I can’t die.
These are the wings of a valkyrie.
Appearing before the wounded a soldier, a valkyrie.
A vision of his beloved swoops down
Crossing a rainbow bridge to guide him.
Valkyrie…
Even if we disobey fate,
Even if we’re torn apart my tears,
Even if dawn breaks on a lifeless world,
I’ll love you.
Wearing armor made of light, soaring across the sky—
A valkyrie, with wings of farewell.
Who are those eyes looking for now?
Who are those lips calling out to?
I’ll keep singing, believing we could meet,
Until I’ve atoned for everything, until I’ve given everything.
These are the wings of a valkyrie
Appearing before the collapsed soldier, a valkyrie.
A vision of his beloved swoops down
To stop him from melting into the blue of the sky
Valkyrie…
With my own hands
I cobbled together sadness
I head east, grasping a seed that will grow out of rubble into pride.
Beloved, beloved, let me be clear,
A valkyrie…
Crossing a rainbow bridge to guide him,
A valkyrie…
Racing across the blue sky
The storms of time howling in my face
Always, I will love you, I will love you.
Take a breath. Let’s go choose our future.
Valkyrie…
I meet with the wind
Someday I’ll bid it farewell.
Even if dawn breaks on a lifeless world,
I’m alive.
Wearing armor made of light, soaring across the sky—
A valkyrie, with wings of farewell.
I love you…
