[Verse 1]
It was never the icy winds of the heights
But the coldness of the world
That hardened my foundation
[Verse 2]
Whether your approach is that of praise or blasphemy
The construction of my being will remain the same
Will remain the same
[Chorus]
If my soaring presence threatens to break your neck
Then so be it you shall dread my name
[Verse 3]
There is a fundamental cleft between your world and mine
One of divine origin
Were you to witness the nakedness of your own soul
It would still appear a tower of Babel
[Bridge]
Is it such a crime to go apart and be alone?
Your holy simplicity turns gold into stone
Gold into stone
[Verse 4]
It was never the icy winds of the heights
But the coldness of the world
That hardened my foundation
[Verse 5]
Whether your approach is that of praise or blasphemy
The construction of my being will remain the same
Will remain the same
[Chorus]
If my soaring presence threatens to break your neck
Then so be it you shall dread my name
Dread my name
