How long has my soul been hiding?
For now I have been brought to
Silence in the faintest light
 
I don't know if I belong here
But in this beauty I am mesmerized
I no longer feel the fear
 
Forget my battles;
They are long gone now
I am under the spell
Of the angel's sound
 
The voice that called me in another life
Now I can hear her clear and bright
 
Now, where do I go?
I'm found
But what do I know about this love?
 
I fall to my knees in disbelief
Now I have seen
What she sees
 
The reprieve of my destiny
Is all that I need to forgive
And the Valkyrie chooses life
 
How long has it been since the pain?
I ran the fields with anger
Shed my blood to pledge a war
 
Now I walk this earth with meaning
And I awaken to a brand new hope
One that cannot be destroyed
 
Forget my battles;
They are long gone now
I am under the spell
Of the angel's sound
 
The voice that calls me in another life
Now I can hear her clear and bright
 
Now, I will go on
I'm found
And now I know of strength and love
