[Intro]
Blood on the gravel
Frost in our lungs
Helmets of iron
Teeth of the young
[Verse 1]
Cold wind is clawing my scars
Rust on the edge of the spear
Ravens are tracing the sky
Calling us closer to here
Old gods burn in our veins
Shields crack
Bones collide
I taste the iron and ash
I feel the pull from the heights
[Chorus]
Valhalla we rise
Through the smoke
Through the cries
Boots in the mud
Hands to the sky
Valhalla we rise
From the dark of our lives
If we fall
If we die
We will feast where the thunder never dies
[Verse 2]
Brothers are breaking their chains
Laughing in faces of kings
Fire is licking our flags
Storm on a thousand black wings
Fear is a rumor
A ghost
Lost in the roar of our stride
I hear the doors in the clouds
Hammered and waiting tonight
[Chorus]
Valhalla we rise
Through the smoke
Through the cries
Boots in the mud
Hands to the sky
Valhalla we rise
From the dark of our lives
If we fall
If we die
We will feast where the thunder never dies
[Bridge]
[Half-time stomp
Gang-chant]
One cut
One crown
Skulls up
Kneel down
Last breath
War cry (hey!)
Open the hall
Let the dead walk alive
[Chorus]
Valhalla we rise
Through the smoke
Through the cries
Boots in the mud
Hands to the sky
Valhalla we rise
From the dark of our lives
If we fall
If we die
We will feast where the thunder never dies
