Glacial Barrier
Pass over me.
Hand me the crystal.
To guide my way.
Into the blizzard.
Its shining light.
A blessing most special.
Never led us astray.
Clearing of hazards.
Though my bones freeze within my body.
I will wade through this pale storm.
Leading the last few survivors.
To the distant looming form.
Up hazed cliffs of ice.
Beaten by howling winds.
Into focus in our eyes.
A glacial barrier.
Impassable.
Impassable.
What lives above?
Hand me the crystal.
To guide my way.
Into the blizzard.
Its shining light.
A blessing most special.
Never led us astray.
Clearing of hazards.
Though my bones freeze within my body.
I will wade through this pale storm.
Leading the last few survivors.
To the distant looming form.
Up hazed cliffs of ice.
Beaten by howling winds.
Into focus in our eyes.
A glacial barrier.
Impassable.
Impassable.
What lives above?
