Lost In The Snow

from NIX by Nick Harper

/

lyrics

The king is in the tower
The ring of gold and the parchments are lost in the snow

Followers look to each other - features frozen, fear discovered
Torn by storms foretold 
The realm is hollow, drained of life, 
They know the words, but can’t recite `
The magic's nought before the bite of winter’s cold 
With nothing left to say, one by one they turn away

And the king is in the tower - stars crossed - destiny: dust
The ring of gold and the parchments are lost in the snow

Fables forged then fair forgotten
Like faces, faint and fey - forsaken, flittering fathoms down 
The icy cool has claimed again,
The myths, the tales, the best of men 
The ghouls who failed to hold the phantom crown
They cry freakish howls, forlorn, for none can be reborn

And the King is in the tower - stars crossed - destiny: dust
The ring of gold and the parchments are lost in the snow

We fragments carry on, forever blown blizzard blind
To none knows where and beyond the edge of mortal time

And the king is in the tower - stars crossed - destiny: dust
The ring of gold and the parchments are lost 
The walls crumble - the vigil is over
Legends lie slain - all is lost, all is lost in the snow
