lyrics

It is snowing inside my mind
Crystals fall through a slowing of time
And the moon is full this night
Shining down on all in sight
Memories drift from another life
And along with pain they arrive

It's dark like night inside my mind
The tears flow from a glacier inside
And they freeze upon my face
Icicles slice into place
Memories come like a chorus of knives
Feel it in my heart, see it in my eyes

If I die down here
In due course
Send me home
To the North
I can't rest here
Bring me home
My icy grave
Bury me in snow

Snow is lying inside my soul
It buries me deep, it buries me whole
Within the dark of night
All is draped in white
Shining sheets gleam under the stars
And when I reach up it doesn't seem so far

I am dying inside my soul
Time has stopped by the power of cold
The stars fall from the sky
I slowly cease to cry
Then my last breath is crushed by this ice
Forgotten by all, forgotten by time

When I die down here
All I gave
Send me home
North of the waves
I won't stay here
A ghost enslaved
Bury me in beauty
The snow that covers my grave

Your tears lost in the snow that covers my grave
Your tears lost in the snow that covers my grave
