Winds Are Silent

To the north we flee
The roads have no end
Across the frozen waters
Across the barren lands
Shamans sing their sullen songs
Play the rhythms of woe
Mourn the ones we’ve lost
The ones that breathe no more

And the winds are silent
We know not where to go
Go away from the lands of the death-cold snow
And the winds are silent
The sun has faded away
Drowned in the remains of yesterday

I hear the hoarse voices
Soaring up the skies
Tearing down the silence,
Hear a child’s cry
Hope kindles in our prayers
Snow will freeze the pain
Across the silent waters
Thousand miles away

And the world is dying
Beneath the alien sky
As our smoldering torches oppose the night
And our world is dying
Deceived and betrayed
Leaving us to die on this wolves’ trail
