Crack in the Ice

[Verse 1]
Dead calm raining all over me
Too late sense of mortality
Dark skies threaten to swallow me
Down to the flame while my flesh and my bone melt away

[Chorus]
I defy you to stand
On the crack in the ice
With the power of your hand
On the crack in the ice

[Verse 2]
Men, raped and discarded
Are left dead, the vultures will feed on them
Lost cause tearing this life apart
Thrown to the flame while my flesh and my bone melt away

[Chorus]
I defy you to stand
On the crack in the ice
With the power of your hand
On the crack in the ice

[Bridge]
Take this moment so close to my heart
You held the white rose out
Just before we parted
Take this moment so far away in dreams
I can feel the thorns bite
But the flower died, it seems
Hold this feeling so far away in dreams
I can feel the thorns bite
But the flower starts to bleed

[Chorus]
I defy you to stand
On the crack in the ice
With the power of your hand
On the crack in the ice
