Cold winds heave against weathered stone Frozen crests unseen, unconqured, unknown Icy peaks in isolation At the edge of the earth Altars to gods of quartz and granite Towering pillars of the sky Old and far away Rolling waves crash on distant shores Mortal thrones swallowed by the sea Fathomless depths below the surface Where the sun's light cannot shine Ancient Hadean realm of silence Kingdom lost to the abyss Old and far away Under the miles of rocky layers Powerful being dwelling in darkness Floating within an ocean of magma Magnetic core - soul of the earth At the farthest reaches of the world Where the wilderness reigns unchallenged Primordial spirit endures In almighty solitude Conqueror of this planet Before, now, and forever I am Old and far away
