"Valkyria" lyrics - AMON AMARTH

AMON AMARTH
"Valkyria"

[Intro:]
Take one

Heal my wounds
Cleanse my blood
It's too soon for my life to be spilled
Into this mud
Cure my flesh
Rest my bones
I don't want to end my life all broken
And bodily torn
Soothe my mind
Ease my pain
Let me see the shores of my homeland
Once again

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
Come healing
Come strength
Valkyria grant me
A life of worthy length

[Chorus 1:]
Eir
Eir
And when it is time, please bring me
To the Allfather's gate

I solemnly swore
I gave you my word
Before I left our home
I promised that I would return
You begged me to stay
To not leave you alone
I went anyway and you cursed the day I was born
No promise I gave I have broken
I've always been loyal and just
No words or lies I have spoken
So why did I earn your distrust?

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
Come honour
Come trust
Valkyria grant me
The strength to keep my oaths

[Chorus 2:]
Var
Var
And when it is time, please bring me
To the Allfather's hall

[Outro:]
Var
Var
Eir
Eir
