Avalanche

It's tumbling down
With gathering speed
Run for your life
Run before you bleed
Run before you suffocate
Run and open up the gate
Run or be crushed under the weight
Of the established cruel call of fate

The Avalanche is coming,
The Avalanche is coming,
The Avalanche is coming.

Once it starts it never ends
Once it hits the gate it twists and bends,
It's way into the fields below, so they become fields of snow,
The snow spreads panic,
The people getting manic,
Bring out the digger,
The snow is getting bigger,
The strain starts to tell,
This cold and frozen hell,

Then the dust settles,
No sign of grass or nettles,
Just the bite of the cold,
Taking a firm hold,
Of the hearts of the people,
From the village to the steeple,
The Avalanche destruction,
The start of reconstruction,
The thoughts in our head that are playing,
How long until we are again saying...

The Avalanche is coming,
The Avalanche is coming,
The Avalanche is coming,
The Avalanche is coming.
