Open the gates to Valhalla

This song is pure metal 🤘🏼Dedicated to the one I want the most.

 

My king, how you have faded

On your throne made of bones

We whisper in the dark «Come fight with us»

While our hearts sink like stones

 

I don’t want to save you,

I just want to set you free

Ride out, ride out on the battlefield with me

 

Open the gates to Valhalla

Let the gods rage against mankind

We’ve been slaves, awating

For the truths we were not ment to find

 

My god, you have lost your faith now

While you watch all our crimes

My dark angel, the light is gone from your eyes

We burned in hell with you

Did you go deaf from our cries..?

 

Open, open the gates to Valhalla

Let the blood fall down like rain

We’ve been slaves, awaiting

Death shall reign, release us from the pain

Release us from the pain!

 

I don’t want to save you

I just want to set you free

Ride out, ride out, ride out!

Ride out on the battlefield with me

 

Open the gates of Valhalla

Release the beasts, unleash the rage

We were slaves, now we are ready

We are not looking to be saved

We are not looking to be saved!

Open the gates to Valhalla

We welcome our fate with open arms

We are no longer slaves!

 

 

 

Cooler than my own company

You’re pretty to look at, sure

And after a while, you’re wishing for more

But baby boy, I don’t believe in destiny

And just because you get the best of me

’Cuz yeah, I fuck good

But I’m not fucking around

So get your head out of the clouds

and keep your feet on the ground

We fuck good

That doesn’t mean we are bound

 

You gotta be, gotta be

Co-Co-Cooler than my own company

If you want anything more from me

That’s what you gotta be

Co-Co-Cooler than my own, my own

Co-Co-Company..

 

I come with you, sure

But I want so much more

If you want to carry me through the door

You fuck good, but you don’t make my jaw drop to the floor

If you want me tied down to you, you gotta be smart

Above all you gotta have a big heart

Keep me interested, keep me fascinated

I’m not up for being constantly frustrated

I learned a lot from the guys I’ve dated

It takes a lot, to be top-rated

 

You gotta be, gotta be

Co-Co-Cooler than my own company

If you want anything more from me

That’s what you gotta be

Co-Co-Cooler than my own, my own

Co-Co-Company

 

Ah, I know

You like what I put up for show

But if you want more than just

Being the source of my lust

’Cuz yeah we fuck good

But I never said ‘forever’, remember

And I am not a pretender

If you want more..

You gotta have the right attitude

If you want more..

You gotta beat my solitude

 

Yeah, if you want more from me..

You gotta be, gotta be

Co-Co-Cooler than my own company

If you want anything more from me

That’s what you gotta be

Co-Co-Cooler than my own, my own

Co-Co-Company

Cooler than, Cooler than

Yeah, I want that man

Co-Co-Cooler than

my co-co-company!

 

 

 

7 years in vain

It’s not all your fault

I played my part too

You didn’t ask for this, I know

I’m just being honest, I wish we’d never met

Damn these stupid things that I do

 

I get it now, I see your side

Suicide, it was suicide

Dial your number and ask you to decide

Force you to tell me what to do with my life

I was waiting for that damn knight who stuck the knife

In my back, heart attack, got me so far off track

Now I see clearly

I yearned for you

Oh, I yearned for you..

But that never ment that I earned you

And I guess I could carry the weight of the world

And still I would not deserve you

 

7 years, gave it 7 years

Guess you helped me numb the pain

I figured if I was worth your tears

That ment you felt the same

Now I know though, those reptile eyes

They only cry for the game

 

Temptation

turned into frustration

All this time, I was waiting

for some revelation

You will never speak truthfully, will you

And you don’t care about my pain

And I’m sure you’re somewhere out there, laughing..

Of these 7 years I spent in vain

 

It’s not all your fault

I played my part too

You didn’t force your way into my head

I kept you alive in there, all by myself

Damb these stupid things that I do

I yearned for you

Oh how I’ve yearned for you!

 

But that doesn’t mean that I’ve earned you

It doesn’t mean I deserve you

 

Broken boys, dangerous men (Shalom)

He loves me, he loves me not

It’s either ice cold or it’s scorching hot

 

These hands; have fired guns, have murdered men

They say all his lovers tends to die young

Guess I could’ve been one of them

 

He always greets me «Shalom»

But there never was

And probably never will..

Be peace in his dark kingdom

 

He loves me, he loves me not

Either ice cold, or scorching hot

Doomed from the start

Still we took the shot

 

Broken boys, turned into dangerous men

The ones our mamas warned about

»Don’t get involved with them»

Still, that broken boy

He’s still somewhere in there

Desperate to be loved, seen, understood

All those feelings I’ve felt too

There’s many of us

That carries wounds from a disturbed and troubled childhood

 

These hands; Have beaten, tortured, killed

And still, I let him touch me

How can I defend

that I am capable of understanding

These broken boys that turned into dangerous men

When I lock eyes with myself in the mirror

I can catch a glimpse of buried hate and rage

I could be one of them..

Yeah, I think I’m one of them..

 

So baby, here we go again

»Shalom»

There never was and probably never will

be peace in our dark kingdom

Peace in our dark kingdom

 

Broken girls, sometimes turns into dangerous women

Just like broken boys can turn into dangerous men

I don’t want to, but maybe I am

Don’t want to, but sometimes I am

One of them..

I’m one of them

 

So what can we say, but greet each other «Shalom»

There never was, never will be

Never was, never could be

Peace.. In our kingdom..

 

 

 

By the Northern shore

Buried by the Northern shore

»Forever», that’s the word I swore

For the rest of my days, I walk alone

The love I recieved, the place I belonged

None of it exists no more

 

No one could prepare me

For the day my worst fear became reality

What runs in my veins, what lurks deep in my mind

In the end, it was all part of my destiny

 

Sadness can kill you so slowly

There’s pain no amount of tears can release

Some curses run through generations of families

For a while, I thought it could explain

this mysterious, invisible disease

 

If you could watch me through the worst parts

Oh I’m grateful that you don’t have to see

You always had such a big heart

No one hurts like the biggest hearts..

And I could not explain or defend to you

Why I can’t become who you believed I could be

 

Buried by the Northern shore

»Forever» that’s the word I swore

»Forever» that’s the word I swore..

It doesn’t matter now- if I scream it against the raging storm, against the cold winter wind, against the summer rain-

«Forever»..

But you can’t hear me anymore

And I will never be the same

 

It’s so hard to accept

Death doesn’t ask, it just takes

I didn’t just lose you-

I lost a part of me too

It does give me some sort of comfort

That you’re not alone, you have a part of me buried there with you..

 

 

No spine, no guts, no balls

My blood in your mouth

Your hands, around my neck

There’s nothing left, inside this heart

Inside this bloodless, shattered wreck

 

You forced me back to life once

Robbed me from the safety in the eternal dark

Forced me back into their cold hands

Right into the mouth of the hungry shark

 

Am I supposed to be grateful?

The fate you handed to me

How could it not turn me hateful

Those walls, every time I close my eyes I see those walls

And you, running away as fast as you can

No spine, no guts, no balls

 

My blood on your hands

The same bloody hands that held me

There was a time, when it felt so good

There was a time, I really thought this is love

Now I know better

You took me right back

To the forgotten parts of my childhood


I deserved to forget!

 

Am I supposed to stay faithful?

All my sacrifices..

You’re so ungrateful

I broke my neck

They burned my self-respect

There’s no hope left

inside this bloodless, shattered wreck

 

If those walls could talk

If they could tell on you and all your crimes

Every time I close my eyes, I see those walls

How you left me there.. I had to realise

You got no spine, no guts, no balls

 

 

 

On your throne

I heard all your tragic stories

Tales of neglect and abuse

Life’s unfair, I get it

But you’ve chosen to live in a world

Where it’s use or be used

 

You seemed so fragile and young at first

Now you’ve hardened to stone

Driven by rage and bloodthirst

Knocking out teeth and breaking bone

Do you feel destined to be a king, in this dark world you roam?

Do you think life will be safe if you seize the throne?

I loved the man you used to be

I fear the man you have become

 

You use my words against me

Do you not remember who walked out first?

Do you think you would’ve done different

if our roles had been reversed?

Maybe the sad truth is

Neither of us knows what real love is

Maybe the sad truth is

It would all boil down to this

 

We both should’ve known better

Than to play with fire

We both should’ve known better

Love is more than just desire

 

You seemed so soft and tender

Time flies when you live hard and fast

Now it’s hard to remember

How long can you last?

In this world you’ve chosen

What happens when your allies decides you’re an outcast?

Do you really want to be a king

in this dark world you roam?

Do you think it will last forever

if you seize the throne?

I loved the man you used to be

I fear the man you have become

 

Now boundaries and lines gets blurred

Sound advice just sounds absurd

Fast money, trick your brain

Sleepless for days, then go insane

It’s strange, what we’ll defend

Full speed, towards an early grave

Broken children turned broken adults, all the way to the bitter end

Does it matter, if I say you could still transcend?

Does it matter, if I still have faith..?

I don’t like that look in your eyes

Are you still somewhere in there, or is it already too late..?

 

All your gory stories, gives me chills down my spine

And how you’re proud to be this cruel, like it’s sublime

The brutal, merciless world where you choose to roam

Do you think you’ll live long on the throne?

I loved the man you used to be..

I fear the man you have become

I fear the man you have become..

 

 

Eye for an eye

8 years, down this broken road

8 years, since I met this so called prince

(Everyone always talk about how you’re so handsome, argh)

But when the sun reveals your true self..

Now all I see, is a slimy toad

(They should talk about how you held me for ransom)

 

Ah, wish I could believe in karma

But all I believe in is revenge

Have you ever been strapped down and tortured..?

Oh, I got a lot to avenge..

 

I curse the day our paths crossed

Wish I could nail you to the cross

So you could feel the pain and confusion

Lose your mind so you could understand my loss

I hate you the most, ‘cause of all the people that hurt me

You knew exactly what you did

I read what you wrote in the aftermath

We both know the ugly truth that you hid

 

Oh, how I curse this demon,

that snuck inside my broken mind

It all fell apart from that moment

Now I’m stuck inside this broken mind

He has all the pieces of my shattered memories

He guards them with no remorse

They are still impossible for me to find

 

Oh, how he taunts me

and he still haunts me

He has the words to set me free

But he will never speak up

and he won’t leave me be

 

Freedom is somewhere I don’t have passport to

The gates remain closed

And heaven is a lie, there is no eternal life

I found out, when I overdosed

I no longer have ambitions

I failed at everything

Even at my suicide missions

 

I wish I’d never met you

Now it’s a little too late

I could not save my sanity

Now you’ve sealed my fate

 

Oh, I curse this demon

I didn’t know, didn’t remember

How it felt to have someone rape your bloody mind

He knows the parts of the story I can’t remember

The parts I can not find

So keep them, I don’t want to know anymore

If I have to face you again, I’ll poke my eyes out

If I have to see your damn face again

I’d rather go blind

 

Ah, wish I could believe in karma

But all I believe in is revenge

Have you ever been strapped down and tortured..?

Oh, I got a lot to avenge..

 

Ah, how he taunts me

and he still haunts me

He has the words to set me free

But he will never speak up

and he won’t leave me be

 

If I could, I’d nail you to the cross

And break your mind, so you’d understand my loss

If I get the chance, I’ll have my revenge

We both know it, don’t we

I got a lot to avenge

 

 

I can’t be brave enough

The rattle of chains, ringing in my head

Status quo is chained to my bed

I should walk out that damn door

Grab life by the balls and squeeze for all I’m worth

But right now I feel worthless

So I stay right put and thrash-talk myself instead

 

God, how did I end up as one of the most privileged

A safe country, a roof over my head, all the opportunities just dangling right in front of my face

The future in front of me, shoulda been ablaze

Shoulda, coulda, woulda..

Asking myself «Why don’t ya?»

The answer is merely just «HAH»

I’m stuck in my head

Stuck in my damn head, living like I’m already dead

 

I’m the sole reason why my life is rough

I can be brave, at times but..

I can’t be brave enough

 

I hate this person staring back in the mirror

I hate how I break when I need myself the most

I hate how when life throws me punches

My damn brain just goes «adios»

I chase this dream, to be more than I am now

But I can’t get seem to get anywhere close

 

Don’t feel bad for me, nah

I get what I deserve

I’m the sole reason why my life is rough

I can be brave, at times but..

I can’t be brave enough

I can’t be brave enough!

 

How did I end up like one of the lucky ones?

I got it all, got nothing to complain about

Never deserved it, just happened to be born here

Still, the guts needed just ain’t there

I shoulda, coulda, woulda..

Asking myself «Why don’t ya?»

I’m the reason why my life is rough

I know, I know this

I can be brave, at times

But I can’t, I just can’t!
Be brave, be brave, be brave ENOUGH

 

 

What we say, what we feel, what we do part III

For my sefune (soulchild) forever ❤️

 

You’re in the dark

Pitch black walls, that’s all you see

and I wish I could tell you, but sad truth is

that you can’t always rely on me

 

I’m so sorry baby

All the times I called you, batshit crazy

It’s so much better if you just let yourself hate me

I’d rather have it that way

than you thinking you should be the one to save me

 

You are lost right now, but I have all the faith in the world for you

I can see all the things you don’t believe that you’re capable to do

And I still believe you have it in you

To push your way through

 

What we say, what we feel, what we do

I doubt myself

I’ve never doubted you

 

You’re in the dark now

But there is still light in you

Baby, you gotta let it shine

Feeling lost, is not a crime

And you still got time

You are so young, you’ve lived through so much

I want so bad to stay sane for you, so my hand is there if you need it to clutch

We both need crutches at times, but baby one day we’ll run free

I hope I’ll always be around when you need someone

To remind you of all that you can be

 

What we say, what we feel, what we do

I can lose my mind

I can not lose you

 

Baby, I wish I could tell you now

How much you mean, how loved you are

When I am in the dark, I think of you

When the sky turns dark you are my shining star

Baby, you got it in you

You can get so far

Leave all this shit, all the demons, all the darkness behind

There’s a bright future on the horizon, one that I know you can find

Even at times when you feel completely blind

I promise you, it’s there..

Don’t let go

 

What we say, what we feel, what we do

Oh, I hate myself at times

But I will always love you

And I want you to love yourself too
