Children of Frost
Hear the night toll in my breathThe cold lights dance overheadHere the lake stares with dark eyesTrees are their lashes of ice
See the star’s glare float upstreamShedding its skin with dead leavesSeems like the sky’s falling upThe wind wraps itself with my lungs
The sea that we saw was a desert of snowfallThe children of frost marched into the deadly dawnIn their great awe they found an old seesawAnd as they got on, the season of dark had gone
Dream with the nomads of lightTheir dogs and their gods are all blindSing as white pours from dark veinsBless all the earth that it paints
The sea that we saw was a desert of snowfallThe children of frost marched into the deadly dawnIn their great awe they found an old seesawAnd as they sat down, the season of dark had come
In our great awe we found an old seesawAnd as we sat down, our season had come
The sea that we saw was a desert of snowfallThe children of frost are wrapped in the dawn
At a great cost we found an old seesawAnd as we sat down, a new season had come
The sea that we saw was a desert of snowfallMy children of frost march on and greet the dawn
