Valkyrie Phoenix (VKX) Original Lyrics

Heyoka

My heart's gone through its long sojourn

The song it hears

Is a nocturne of laughter

How shall I

To all that was,

Return

What more is there for me to learn

Heyoka

Holy trickster of medicine from the deep

It's time to laugh at my scars

Till they're all washed clean

Let's mock my tears

Till no more I bleed

It's crazy salve

Like I've never seen

Heyoka

Laugh it away

It's already purged me whole

It's time to make fun

Of what's already done

Heyoka

Looking at life

Like a sacred clown

Once here

Twice there

Now forever gone

It left me unfurled

And it left me undone

And it left me better

Than I've ever known

Heyoka

Holy trickster of medicine from the deep

It's time to laugh at my scars

Till they're all washed clean

Let's mock my tears

Till no more I bleed

It's crazy salve

Like I've never seen

Heyoka...

Heyoka

Your Truck

Maybe one day

I'll stop looking

For your truck

A prince charming

On four wheels

Who never

Shows up

Maybe

The wild my heart

Doesn't match

The wild in yours

And maybe

It's time

I've had enough

Cause when 'the get'

Gets harder

At the end of the day

It's not what you got

It's what you own

That stays

And baby...

Maybe one day

I'll stop looking

For your truck

Driving through town

Wonderin'

How many others

You've been with

And why

I was never enough

Maybe the wild

In my heart

Just isn't

The wild in yours

And maybe

It's time

I've had enough

Cause when 'the get'

Gets harder

At the end of the day

It's not what you got

It's what you own

That stays

And baby.....

Maybe one day

I'll stop looking

For your truck

Like two ghost ships

Passing

In a restless night

You're not worth

The fight

Cause I've stopped

looking for your truck

In fact

I bought one

Of my own

And I'm driving

This heart home

I know the wild

In my heart

Is too good

For the wild in yours

And baby

This time

I've had enough

Cause when 'the get'

Gets harder

At the end of the day

It's not what you got

It's what you own

That stays

And baby...

I stopped looking for your truck

Come together

To dawn a new

And precious day

Woah, woah

Woah, oh

From the great above

She set her ear

To the valley

Of the great below

Then, she rose from the land

Of the dead

To take her throne

Maiden, Mother, Crone

Woah, woah

Mirror Tree

I went down

To the Mirror Tree

To fall in love

With what I see

Though cracked and soiled

Her lens may be

She reflected this

Back to me

Oh, ohh,

Ohh, oh, oh, ohhh

Walk on the water

There is no other

The answer's in the question

So, just be open

Ripened on the vine

Loopin' back on time

Fruit that was forbidden

Is now

To what you're listening

Fruit that was forbidden

Is now

To what you're listening

I went down

To the Mirror Tree

To fall in love

With what I see

Though cracked and soiled

Her lens may be

She saw and allowed

The whole of me

Oh, ohh,

Ohh, oh, oh, ohhh

Mirror Tree, Mirror Tree

Show me all

I cannot see

Mirror Tree, Mirror Tree

Show me all

I cannot see

Oh, ohh,

Ohh, oh, oh, ohhh

Walk on the water

There is no other

The answer's in the question

So, just be open

Ripened on the vine

Loopin' back on time

Fruit that was forbidden

Is now

To what you're listening

Fruit that was forbidden

Is now

To what you're listening

I went down

To the Mirror Tree

To fall in love

With what I see

Our Souls & Music

Where there's our souls

And music

We are forever intertwined

No matter how we left each other

May our hearts and voices always find

How this love

Lifted us higher

How this love

Lifted us higher

Where there's our souls

And music

Our voices rose as the sun

Despite in life all that we couldn't handle

We shared the stage as one

And this love

Lifted us higher

And this love

How were we to know all along

The hurts we'd bring out in eachother

Thinking love was like singing a song

But the melody left

The bridge collapsed

And the chorus could not respond

And I buried

The memory

Where there's our souls

And music

We are forever intertwined

No matter how we left each other

May our hearts and voices

Always find

Find

How this love

Lifted us higher

How this love

Lifted us higher

Higher

Where there's our souls

And music

So, Death

Here we are

Where's my rebirth

Can't we speed through

All this dark

So, Death

What are you asking

Cause I've given you so much

What more do you see left

So, Death

I accept

There is magic in the grave

Destroying everything I saved

Take what's yours

So, Death

I accept

So, Death

You come to take

So that life may more freely give

So, Death

Clear the way for more to live

It's time for me to let it in

So, Death

I accept

There is magic in the grave

Destroying everything I saved

Take what's yours

So, Death

I accept

Ohhh

So, Death

I accept

There is magic in the grave

Destroying everything I saved

Take what's yours

So, Death

Oooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, oh, ooh, oh

So, Death

Here we are

Where's my rebirth

Can't we speed through

All this dark?

Black Moon Lilith

Have I buried you alive?

Is my estrangement from your dark

An invitation more to thrive

Black Moon Lilith

Rise and fall within the mist

You are shadow

Ground not fallow

Herald all that I have missed

Black Moon Lilith

High priestess of my unknown

Black Moon Lilith

Where would you have me go

Where would you have me go?

Black Moon Lilith

Speak in whispers over screams

Your silence defeans all

Who dare not let themselves go free

Black Moon Lilith

Rise and fall within the mist

You are shadow

Ground not fallow

Herald all that I have missed

Black Moon Lilith

High priestess of my unknown

Black Moon Lilith

Where would you have me go

Where would you have me go?

Hungry Ghost

I release you

You, who my blood would drink

Just for what you think you'd gain

And I release you

You, who my flesh would devour

To one moment more, feel sane

I release you

You, who would martyr my soul

To escape the cross you bear

And I release you

Though a vestige of the angels

You're the devil's harrowing lair

And I release you

Hungry Ghost

I release you

Take all your woes

I release you

Take your leave

Hungry Ghost

And leave me to my free

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooooh

And I release you

Hungry Ghost

I release you

Take all your woes

I release you

Take your leave

Hungry Ghost

And leave me to my free

Ohh, oh, ohhh

Just Follow Me (Mama)

I know you're weary

I know you miss me

I miss you too

I know underneath it all

You know why I left it all

I did what you were afraid to do

And I know deep down

You're glad that I broke through

And my soul

Sings this to you

Mama, you can leave

I'll show you how

Mama, you're enough

It took just one step for me

I set me free

And maybe one day, you'll see, oh

And maybe one day, we'll be

Mama, you can leave

Just follow me

So, you think you can't make it

I want you to know that you can

I left so many places

With no money in my hands

You don't need a plan

I've shown the world I can rise

A thousand times again

And my soul sings this to you, oh

Mama, you can leave

I'll show you how

Mama, you're enough

It took just one step for me

I set me free

And maybe one day you'll see, oh

And maybe one day we'll be

Mama, you can leave

Just follow me

Woah

Mama, you can leave

Just look at your baby

Mama, you're enough

I love you so much

I set me free

And maybe one day you'll see

And maybe one day we'll be

Mama, you can leave

Just follow me

Woah

Just follow me

Wings (Lullaby)

Fly me away

Little dandelion seed

Fly me away with you

Take me to my wings

And to all that is new

May we ride the unabridged air

May we summon the wind

May we never more care

If we rise or descend

Fly me away

Little dandelion seed

Fly me away with you

Take me to my wings

And to all that is true

Take me to my wings

And to all that is true
