In winter's cold embrace, time frozen cracked ice chimes

Shadows lie in wait, vengeance for all humanity

Despair is on its way, claiming souls root in the earth

Embed deep within, make whole something new

Salvage from winters pass, to come again once more

From human souls it takes, vast foresting made

In human form it makes, writhing witchery

Ancient wraith breeds fear, punishment is just

Balancing the scales, or worse

Conjuring protection, despair heeds the call

Wielding long dead magics, primal forces sway

Strips of flesh, take root in the earth

No more breath, becoming unified

Sins repaid with death, humanity takes its toll

Taking something back, pride

Screams of pain, victims shattered soul

Winters grip, yearly ritual

Embed in snow, regrowth eventual

Slain for need, gain

Another season has past, ice melts once more

Ancient shamans curse, vengeance being flesh

Earth made anew, souls of those who knew

Embed deep within, make whole something new

Salvage winters pass, to come again once more
