The frozen veil encases the thunderous night
The wolves are just in reach calling for the moon
(The fire is no more)
The flame is extinguished
But don’t lose hope, don’t lose sight
'Cause it's just a little bit farther
Look up to the stars through the falling snow
We can’t let go
Reach up, reach up, no we can’t let go
(Frozen time can’t collapse)
Reach up, the night is nothing to be feared
The arctic winds flow straight through the core
Straight through the core
Smothering the hope we thought we had, that we thought would always last
The endless horizons, the tundra is too much to handle
Catacombs of fear, suppressed by the luminosity of the never-ending flames
The polar routines we once had, separated from the light
If you think this will break me, you better stop dead in your tracks
Frozen time can’t collapse
Things change and I accept that, but survival is something I know all too well
Independence has been taken from you, never living the same lives we once knew
Reach up, the night is nothing to be feared
The arctic winds flow straight through the core
Take back every thing you’ve said, you’re not who you used to be
Reach up, the night is nothing to be feared
The arctic winds flow straight through the core
