Lyrics

The shadows move like water
Reflecting on a wall
The air about the shoulders
Of this place
Cold and remembering
Cold but relenting
Half blind with intention
A tragic invention
Cold but remembering
In it comes—the frost
To cause our breath like clouds
And hands held tight
In their sleeves
Cold and remembering
Cold but relenting
Half blind with intention
A tragic invention
Cold but remembering
This cause and consequence
Of iron and of ice —
So worth the cost
For the promise of light
Cold and remembering
Cold but relenting
Half blind with intention
A tragic invention
Cold but remembering

Pinyin

The shadows move like water
Reflecting on a wall
The air about the shoulders
Of this place
Cold and remembering
Cold but relenting
Half blind with intention
A tragic invention
Cold but remembering
In it comes the frost
To cause our breath like clouds
And hands held tight
In their sleeves
Cold and remembering
Cold but relenting
Half blind with intention
A tragic invention
Cold but remembering
This cause and consequence
Of iron and of ice
So worth the cost
For the promise of light
Cold and remembering
Cold but relenting
Half blind with intention
A tragic invention
Cold but remembering
