Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse 1] Frost seals the mouth of the mountain Ash settles deep in the pine I walk where the old stones are broken With winter awake in my eyes [Pre-Chorus] No hand can pull me backward No fire can make me kneel The silence under blackened snow Is sharper than steel [Chorus] Carry me north through the merciless air Past the last dying trace of prayer I raise my voice to the iron sky And let the frozen kingdom reply [Verse 2] A pale moon hangs over the ridgeline The river is locked in its bed Each step is a mark for the nameless Each breath is a vow to the dead [Pre-Chorus] No hand can pull me backward No fire can make me kneel The silence under blackened snow Is sharper than steel [Chorus] Carry me north through the merciless air Past the last dying trace of prayer I raise my voice to the iron sky And let the frozen kingdom reply [Bridge] When the storm breaks open When the dark turns white I will stand unbroken At the edge of night [Final chorus] Carry me north through the merciless air Past the last dying trace of prayer I raise my voice to the iron sky And let the frozen kingdom reply [Outro] The mountain keeps my secret The winter keeps my name
