  • Anybody out there?

    Building up the pain, it's ready to go
    The rocket has launched, where will it go?
    And what will it be, and what will we do
    The match has sparked a fire anew
    And what will we do

    Valkyrie missile, packed and away
    Something is coming, but I can't say
    She knows I know, and I know it too
    Surprise, here it is, we were waiting for you

    Take a chance, 'cause I know you want to
    Let me kiss you, and let me save you
    Let me end your eternal fear
    Let me take you far away from here

    Cocked and loaded, ready to go
    No one knows what happens when it goes
    One by one, the rockets fly
    Soaring into the February sky

    Take a chance, 'cause I know you want to
    Let me kiss you, and let me save you
    Let me end your eternal fear
    Let me take you far away from here

    Valkyrie missile, packed and away
    Something is coming, but I can't say
    She knows I know, and I know it too
    Surprise, here it is, we were waiting for you

    Take a chance, 'cause I know you want to
    Let me kiss you, and let me save you
    Let me end your eternal fear
    Let me take you far away from here

    Take a chance, 'cause I know you want to
    Let me kiss you, and let me save you
    Let me end your eternal fear
    Let me take you far away from here Writer/s: THOMAS DELONGE

  • Haylie from Orlando, Flgo look up "valkyrie" in wikipedia and see what you find. then, you'll all understand that this song is about "war" but not in a literal sense. and it has something to do with tom and another woman. check it out and you'll see that it has nothing to do with the riff between tom and mark or AVA being born or any of that crap.
  • Caz from Minnesota, Mnhey
