|
Who watches the snowy owl |
|
In the rare winter's sun |
|
Knows the breath-taking precision |
|
Of an assassin |
|
Who crosses the frozen lake |
|
Wary of step |
|
Knows the surface groans underfoot |
|
Where a pale, blue face, lifeless says: |
|
Strange days lie up ahead they've just been playing dead |
|
What is done can not be undone |
|
What follows the northern lights |
|
Dangerous diamonds |
|
Knows the sky is a great abyss |
|
Opening, swallowing us all |
|
Strange days shiver and shimmer in deep reverie |
|
What is done can not be undone |
|
Climb higher north towards the dangerous diamonds |
|
Hands shake bones break the bells are ringing |
|
The air is thinning |
|
Who watches the snowy owl |
|
In the rare winter's sun |
|
Knows the rabbit can only hide |
|
Some threats can not be outrun |
