This endless night,
This funeral dirge,
We celebrate life,
At the end of the earth.
When everything is gone,
There'll be nothing left to lose.
The ice is closing in,
And nothing will remain.
We took what we could get,
And we burned it anyway.
With all those secrets,
We swore we'd take 'em to the grave.
The light will falter and will fade,
And in the darkness we'll say:
"This winter hasn't been so rough,
Oh it was cold but still it wasn't cold enough,
To freeze the blood beneath my spine,
And at least I survived."
We're sleeping through the days,
And sinking like a ship,
We're wasting away,
Bit by bit.
Everyone is gone,
And everything is changed,
It won't ever be the same,
And when it's over we'll say:
"This winter hasn't been so rough,
Oh it was cold but still it wasn't cold enough,
To freeze the blood beneath my spine,
And at least I survived."
We've had some dark days,
We're in the thick of it now,
And when the ice breaks,
There will be no one around.
We've had some dark days,
We're in the thick of it now,
And when the ice breaks,
There will be no one around.
This winter hasn't been so rough,
Oh it was cold but it wasn't cold enough,
To freeze the blood beneath my spine,
And at least I survived.
This winter hasn't been so rough, (we've had some dark days)
Oh it was cold but still it wasn't cold enough, (we're in the thick of it now)
To freeze the blood beneath my spine, (and when the ice breaks)
At least I'll survive.
