Cold Wind To Valhalla Lyrics

Lyric discussion by reader 

Cover art for Cold Wind To Valhalla lyrics by Jethro Tull

its about the norse pagen religion as we see he speeks about vallhala which the place where all brave (dead) worriors go, its kinda like heaven where the worrios fight for all eternity among themselves. in the song a worrior has obviously died as the valkryries (kind of like angles whose job it is to escourt these worriors to vallhala) are with him and thor the norse g-d of war is there too.

i think the point is more that the Valkyries are sent to retrieve dead heroes for Valhalla, but they're heading back empty-handed because there ARE no true heroes anymore.
