Lyrics
Intro
Wings of silver, crowns of snow
Through the northern gates we go
Light the banners
Wake the blade
Here begins the frost parade
Verse 1
Little queen with winter eyes
Smiling under storm-lit skies
Velvet cloak and iron grace
Snowflakes melt upon my face
Golden halls are cracked and cold
Every throne is bought and sold
But I hear the ravens sing
Crown me now on broken wings
Pre-Chorus
Raise the horns
Let heaven burn
One by one, the lost return
March!
Rise!
Strike!
Fly!
Chorus
Valkyries ride through the fire and snow
Bright little angels with blades below
Smile for the kingdom, kneel for the flame
We carve our glory in winter’s name
Frost parade!
Frost parade!
Silver wings over ruins arrayed
Frost parade!
Frost parade!
Heaven is armed, and the saints are afraid
Verse 2
Pearl-white armor, crimson thread
Rose-cold lips among the dead
Every prayer becomes a spear
Every song devours fear
I was made from light and war
Sweet as dawn and wanting more
Spin the banners, break the chain
Let the stars fall down like rain
Pre-Chorus 2
Raise the horns
Let mercy freeze
Bow your head beneath the breeze
March!
Rise!
Strike!
Fly!
Chorus
Valkyries ride through the fire and snow
Bright little angels with blades below
Smile for the kingdom, kneel for the flame
We carve our glory in winter’s name
Frost parade!
Frost parade!
Silver wings over ruins arrayed
Frost parade!
Frost parade!
Heaven is armed, and the saints are afraid
Bridge
Lay the roses on the shield
Paint the dawn across the field
Tiny hands and holy knives
Bless the fallen, take their lives
Snow above
Ash below
Where the silent rivers flow
No retreat!
No remorse!
Ride the storm!
Hold the course!
Build
I am not your fragile light
I am sugar wrapped in spite
I am mercy turned to steel
I am everything you kneel to feel
Final Chorus
Valkyries ride through the fire and snow
Bright little angels with blades below
Smile for the kingdom, kneel for the flame
We carve our glory in winter’s name
Frost parade!
Frost parade!
Silver wings over ruins arrayed
Frost parade!
Frost parade!
Heaven is armed, and the saints are afraid
Outro
Wings of silver, crowns of snow
Through the northern gates we go
Smile, little kingdom…
The frost has come home.
