meet me on the frozen isles
where light runs short to cover smiles, loud
silence kisses death around
the frost beneath our toes, the ground, at once
you whispered to me, "it seems
"long has passed since summer's gleam," I know
so bathe me in your winter light, and
sing the tragic tale of blizzards' snow
summers pass and winters die
the sun envelops leaves that lie about
slipping through a split, remains
never to see night nor day again
now alone, the earth's soft voice
trembles as you see the choice is made
so toss aside your shovel, and
take rest inside the place you call your grave
restitution, recompense
for damages at your expenses, paid
water runs the cracks alone
widening the gap from the unknown
you waltzed along the frozen tracks
fearless, never looking back, so sure
but a massive metal hearse then claimed
you for death, and death was soon made pure
but a massive metal hearse then claimed
you for death, and death was soon made pure
