Appalachian Winter - Winter lyrics

Winter: A world of crystal A world of white And frozen winds Under endless night Winds rise; Gray skies blacken The world becomes One Lonely footstep The depths of time's raging ocean The face of cosmic indifference The persistance of life's greatest agony; All are manifest in these freezing days The failing sun; Out of reach Strength must be found To have a future The world contorts, breathing pa**ionately- Coldly - seconds become epochs Time seizes into darkness Until the explosion of white hurries the warm of blood The cold winds - Dancing - As if the world Has descended into a reverie of hate For the life it nurtures This season, fierce in its pa**ion Hiding behind the gentle fall of snow And lifeless shades of gray Roars with fury unknown by the evil in the minds of men
