The Ice Choir Songtext
von Ice Choir

I will sing the ice choir
Oh, transient defeat
Lifeless world, my heart aches like
The wind through empty streets

Spatter good tidings
Now dressed in ribbons of gold
And gathering winter′s gifts untold
A vibrating crystal
Frost whipped and singing through air
Wait not for me, love, I won't be there

Feel now for the heartbeat
Feel now for the pulse
Look now, brittle treetops
Look now, frozen pond
(Can you see yourself?)

I will sing the ice choir
Oh, transient defeat
Lifeless world, my heart aches like
The wind through empty streets


Crushed and degraded
The maps of the black and the white
Will settle like snow, oh, holy night
And you wear the whisper
Beside the heartache field
Will melt to the language of the spirits

Feel now for the heartbeat
Feel now for the pulse
Look now, brittle treetops
Look now, frozen pond
(Can you see yourself?)

I have joined the ice choir
Contracted in the cold
I will sing the aria
When all the birds have flown

Now we are the ice choir
In hibernating pose
To listen for the crack of spring
Or push against the rose

(Can you see yourself?)
