Would you please just stop
Building new roads and railways
That nobody needs

Would you please just stop
Building new roads and railways
That nobody needs
Cling to this moment
Before it all falls apart
Melt my frozen heart
In gloomy shadows
That the light never reaches
That’s where Jack frost hides
Open up my eyes
Disconnect me from these lies
Make my spirit fly
Following the line
To where twisted brambles climb
Running out of time
In our children’s eyes
How will this be remembered?
The start, or the end?
Between day and night
The light of another world
Carries us beyond
Between blue blankets
Frost settles in for the night
Can I hibernate?
Paddles pick their way
Fighting through frosted ice sheets
Frozen fingers burn
From ice dusted fields
The will of the wisp arose
Luring us away
