Waking up, sweat runs in streams Heat bakes me beyond my dreams My will is strong; drive to escape To go far north to polar cape White snow, barren wasteland Howling wind my only friend Step by step I’m getting closer Scrunching snow ever louder My fingers freeze and get all numb No warmth only deadly cold from blue blazing sun Play your cards or fold Or become inured to cold I embrace the bitter cold I invite the biting frost Let it ravish every inch of burning skin When pain retrieves, I feel like in a dream The compass needle spins like crazed Cardinal directions vanished from this plane I’ve surpassed the very north Finding myself beyond A crust of ice is covering my starring eyes Starring into white abyss My soul is pierced by a spear made of scolding cold My home is here, beyond the north Back again, sweat runs in streams Heat bakes me beyond my dreams My will is melting I can’t move fast My body screams: “I’m fucking stressed!” No relief from heat of the ardent sun Swirling dust like ashes of a past long gone Reminding me of times as it Wasn’t worth To flee beyond the north A crust of ice is covering my starring eyes Starring into white abyss My soul is pierced by a spear made of scolding cold I come from beyond the north
