Dawn breaks on your windowsill The morning is quiet and still There's not a sound I see you sleeping there Unawake, without a care Above the ground So sincere, yet I feel nothing No meaning to life or loving You passion burns hot like a fire Burning heedless of this cost You cannot burn away this ice This heart bathed in permafrost Out the gate and far away Feeling nothing more to say In this land of ice Purity in streets of snow I feel nothing more below And it feels nice Can you speak in tongues And try and stop what has begun? You passion burns hot like a fire Burning heedless of the cost It cannot burn away this ice This heart bathed in permafrost You cry and say that you need me Without me you feel lost No lament will ever change me My heart lies in permafrost And the dawn will come on fields white with snow My funeral will come with embers all aglow But not in black will my coffin be mourned White as ice is the only color I'll have on You passion burns hot like a fire Burning heedless of the cost It cannot burn away this ice This heart bathed in permafrost You cry and say that you need me Without me you feel lost No lament will ever change me My heart lies in permafrost Can you set the sky on fire? Is that what you desire most? Only cold fills my desire All I seek is permafrost
