Winterchild

You're standing numb

Looking back

How long already

How could you fool flee to the world

Just right before the break of winter

And nothing in this world will change

All just stays the same

The world

A gate

To a thousand deserts

Silent and cold

And one who's lost what you have lost

Does stop at nothing

Never rests

You're standing pale

Damned to go off on your winter travel

Just like the smoke that's always seeking

Colder

Chiller

Higher skies

And nothing in this world will change

All just stays the same

The world a gate

To a thousand deserts

Silent and cold

And one who's lost what you have lost

Does stop at nothing

Never rests

Fly bird and sing your song

In the way of the desert bird

And hide

You fool this bleeding heart

In ice and snow

In chill and scorn

Yeah

Save your prayers before they swoon

This bitter cold that came so soon

Every story has it's end

His future dreams forever banned

Oh

My dearest winterchild

Overwhelmed by coldness

Ice and snow at night

The crows are screaming

And fly whirring towards town

Soon it will snow

Woe betide those who don't have home

And nothing in this world will change

All just stays the same

The world a gate

To a thousand deserts

Silent and cold

And one who's lost what you have lost

Does stop at nothing

Never rests

Fly bird and sing your song

In the way of the desert bird

And hide you fool this bleeding heart

In ice and snow

In chill and scorn
