Up high and far away, where the air is clear
A vast horizon shimmers
The cold wind seems to carry the light away
As the Earth's rotation closes the day

Beyond the towering peaks
Recurring shadows bow deep
Into the raging rivers

Beyond the towering peaks
Recurring shadows bow deep
Into the raging rivers

The ground runs cold and hard
Throughout the dark season

The ebb and flow
Of growth and regression
Seasons build
Seasons tear down
The northern hammer
Keeps beating, beating
Hear the echoes rumble
Rumble

Hear the echoes rumble

Beyond the towering peaks
Recurring shadows bow deep
Into the raging rivers
Into the raging rivers

Beyond the towering peaks
Recurring shadows bow deep
Into the raging rivers

The ground runs cold and hard
Throughout the dark season
Roots grow deep in order to keep
Clinging to the gusty plains
The wind hushes the Earth to sleep

The ebb and flow
Of growth and regression
Seasons build
Seasons tear down
The northern hammer
Keeps beating, beating
Beating, beating, yeah
Hear the thunderous rumble
Across the thunderous sky

Summers reveal
Winters conceal
The thunderous sky oversees it all
Up North and far away
Where the air is clear
Vast horizons call

The mighty force of winter
Shapes a merciless scenery
Throughout the dark seasons
Roots grow deep to keep
Earth to sleep

There's a place where the summer will be
As a legend long gone set free
And this warms me beautifully, aw-yeah

Where the sun cast shadows at night
Where the day and evenings are bright
The place where I belong, yeah
Up North

Where the pine trees meet the sea
Where the stormy sky will sing for me
The place I wanna be, yeah
Yeah-yeah, up North

Fall, my favorite season
Death and rain and rain and rain
Falling leaves and fallen stars
As fallen men go back to start
Death as life we hail
Alone but not alone we sail

Death give life and lead the way
All energy remain

Then winter, it's you and me
The winter is home to the dead alone
With you I'll sleep with ease

Take a moment to reflect and be
Who you are and you are
Just another iceberg's tip at sea

You will melt eventually
And the ocean will rise and the sun crystallize you
For the aftermath to see
The spark of true eternity, yeah

Clean as a new start set me free
In your wisdom I'm lost what do I know of frost
But I trust you know lost is lost

Winter, she is unforgiving as faith
And then spring you will shake
Speed the circle and brake
And create and create and create

Yeah

And the circle is now complete
No end for an end to meet
Nothing is obsolete
Up North

No end
No end for an end to meet
No end
No end for an end to meet

The fire that burns
The light that governs the heat
Igniting the passion
The eternal appetite
For things to come
For thoughts to create

The independent nature of man
A creator and destroyer
Deeply rooted, widely spread
The will to strive, the need to push

A fire
A fire that burns
(And devours)
A fire
A fire that burns

The spark that glimmers
So that visions appear in a flash

The independent nature of man
A creator and destroyer
Deeply rooted, widely spread
The will to strive, the need to push

A fire
A fire that burns
(And devours)
A fire
A fire that burns

The adventures of the mind
And the conquest of the flesh

(The spark) that glimmers
So that visions appear in a flash
Initiating the chain reaction

Culminating in the very fuel
That drives us on
The independent nature of man
Of man

Fire

The will to thrive, the will to leap
Above the highest, the highest peak
The will to thrive, the will to leap
The will to swim, beneath the deep

Fire
A fire that burns

The adventures of the mind
And the conquest of the flesh

When the dotted lights
Crawl like bugs
On the canvas high above
All I love

And the answer's in my sheets
I forget about tomorrow
And my sorrow

Leave it to the great painter
To open the world and my

In the morning light

Leave it to my mind

In the morning light
In the morning light

The air vibrates
With awareness

So now that you see me
A servant in the snow
And now that you hear me
I broke free long ago

I took the world and broke it up
To force it down
I picked the pieces up
And wore 'em like a crown

And my light shone through forever
And the sky would never hold
And my light shone through forever
And the sky would never hold

So now that you see me
A servant in the snow
And now that you hear me
I broke free long ago

My heroes
They all died so long ago
My heroes
They all died so long ago

To expand on his creation

I took the world and broke it up
To force it down
I picked the pieces up
And wore them like a crown

And the light shone through forever
And the sky would never hold
(No, it would never hold)
And my light shone through forever
And the sky would never hold

Leave it to the great painter
To open up my mind
Now leave it to me
To expand on his creation

My heroes
They all died so long ago
My heroes
They all died so long ago

Freedom exists on a greater scale
Freedom exists on a greater scale
Freedom exists on a greater scale
Freedom exists

Awakened by a thumping heart
Growing in his chest
Impulse of generations free
Sounding in on men
Calling him already

To climb the peaks
To reach the sun
To rise above
To rise above
To climb the peaks
To reach the sun
To rise above
To rise above

There's a time, a time for all
No man's in memory
Eyes are glowing
Life and possibility
Wild father's

There is a time
A time for all
To rise above
To rise above
There is a time
A time for all
To rise above
To rise above

Reason and reverence
Lot of flowing him and knows who follows
Wild father's heart
Driven by Nature's excellence

Wild father's
Wild father's heart

There is a time
A time for all
To rise above
To rise above
There is a time
A time for all
To rise above
To rise above
(To rise above)

Oh, mankind's constructed fallacy
Aggressively upheld a reality
Fit for an age without questions
But these constructions of delusions now crumble

A new complexity rises
(Violently force themselves)
Into stagnant waters of old
As progression descends
Serving us evolution on a plate
Mankind's infancy is over (over)
Our vision is finally clear

Man derives from the great old blue
From mankind's disavowal grew confusion
Grew delusion in a haze
From human curiosity and logic
Reason and clarity are born

Fashioned worlds corrode
The bewilderment of old

We've reached the summit
The zenith of our mountain
And the cloud of delusion
Are finally beneath us

Mount rapture crumbles
Stale ignorance implodes
Reality shines through

Oh, mankind's constructed fallacy
Aggressively upheld a reality
Fit for an age without questions
But these constructions of delusions now crumble

Fashioned worlds corrode
The bewilderment of old

They left it all behind
Crawling through the snow
Every peak, a spear piercing the sky
In this twilight glow (oh, yeah)

The blinding white
Swallowed them whole
The freezing wind drained them of all life
Then left them cold (yeah)
Cold (yeah)

Life in a flash of red
Pushing the white death

(Floating in the white)
Hear them calling you
Hear them calling you
Hear them calling you
Hear them calling you
(Floating in the white)
Hear them calling you
Hear them calling you
Hear them calling you
Hear them calling you

Heat is white
And they cannot find their way
Back into reason
Into their lives

Into the white

(Floating in the white)
Hear them calling you
Hear them calling you
Hear them calling you
Hear them calling you
(Floating in the white)
Hear them calling you
Hear them calling you
Hear them calling you
Hear them calling you

When there's nothing left to save
But an empty shell
You sink into the white
You sink into the white

(Into the white)
(Into the nothingness)
(White)
(Into the nothingness)

(White)
(Into the nothingness)
(White)
(Into the nothingness) aw

So the winter finally brought them home
Into the white

Into the white
Into the white
Into the white

The ancient trails ahead
Beat through the barren plains
Wandered by man and beast
Since the dawn of time

Towards the sun
Towards the moon
They strode, as do I
To claim our stellar home
Under the dome

We have walked these paths before
We are standing on the shoulders
Of our fathers, of our mothers
And their world of lore

The olden seas bellow
Raging as they beat the shore
Lifting me with a threat
Into calmer waters

Leading me towards my haven
Towards the sands
Our ancient retreat
Underneath the stars
Ah

We sailed the seas before
We reached them through the rivers
Icy waters of the moors
And age-old peaks above

Yeah

In our chase through the steep ravines
We have sought to see
We have strained to be free
We have charged towards smooth waters
Towards new horizons and our land of old

Under the stellar dome
I have seen these lights before
The moon, the stars
Our place within the lore

We sailed the seas before
We reached them through the rivers
Our place within the lore
I've seen these lights before

We have sailed the seas before
Oh, we have reached them through the rivers
Through the icy waters of the moors
And age-old peaks above

The ancient trails ahead
Beat through the barren plains
Wandered by man and beast
Since the dawn of time

We sailed the seas before
We reached them through the rivers
The waters of the moors
And age-old peaks above

There are voices in the air
There are voices in the air
They always find me, oh, they find me
No matter where I go

There are voices in my head
There are voices in my head
They won't leave me, never leave me
No matter where I go

There are chains now in the field
There are chains now in the field
There's no freedom, no freedom
There's no freedom in the field

There are voices in the air
They always find me in the air
There are voices, oh, there are voices
No matter where I go

There are voices in my head
There are voices in my head
They won't leave me, they won't leave me
No matter where I go

And there are chains now in the field
Yes, there are chains now in the field
So there's no freedom, no freedom
There's no freedom in the field

There are voices in the air
There are voices in the air
They always find me, oh, yes, they find me
No matter where I go

I will lay there in the field
With the voices in the air
When I finally draw my last breath
I will lay there in the field

When I finally stop to breathe
When I finally stop to breathe
All the voices, all the voices
Will only linger in the field
Will only linger in the field
Will only linger in the field

Awakened by a thumping heart
Growing in his chest
Impulse of generations free
Sounding in on men
Calling him already

To reach the sun

To climb the peaks
