lyrics

Roaming across that frigid landscape
My woolen cape flickers in the wind
Feet slipping over ice trodden pathways
Eyes blinded by the shimmering snow
Muscles frozen, skin frostbitten
I conjure up the strength to go on

I shiver with the ghosts of tyrants old
I freeze with their somber despair
I glaciate with the hills and the sky
I embrace winter to become you all

Over frozen rivers I cross that arctic plain
Pushing against the coming ancestral storm
Gelid wonders delight and dazzle me
To embrace the numbing atrophy

Who comes to us, foolish wanderer?
Who dares enter our brumal kingdom?

Frozen whispers, tongues of frost
Within the tornado of ice and snow
Lashing torment, biting frenzy
Stinging fingers of gods of yore

Plunging down into the crevasse
I escape their polar ferocity
Deposited into those bromine waters
Flailing among the algid relics
To freeze at sea

Weakness triumphant, body dormant
I collapse on the tundra ice floe
Bleak encampment, frozen misery
Forever shivering with the ghosts of tyrants old
