Valhalla Avenue Lyrics by Fatima Mansions, The

Valhalla Avenue Lyrics

    You awake, lying still
    While light makes landfall
    In the steel suburban room
    The windows show, row on row, all the same:
    More people are summoned round to chase to blue

    Your lips still work, you know your name
    But know not why nor whence you came
    You have no past, you have no guilt
    You've arrived, you've arrived
    Dreams, nightmares are through
    You've arrived, you've arrived on valhalla avenue

    You were a drunk, you kept a filthy home
    And you hated hard with confusion in your heart
    The barren weeks, the amnesiac years
    You'd put the world off till tomorrow and let despair tear you apart

    Well, now they're breaking down the door
    Your hideaway is safe no more
    Scream as they drag you from your bed
    When you recount from a bleeding head

    You've arrived, you've arrived
    But redemption was not for you
    You've arrived--goodbye to valhalla avenue

    So long! cheerio! bye bye!
    I'll see you later on! next time, i hope it's fun!
