[00:12.543]I still remember the day the frost descended
[00:15.592]It was the end of empty threats from a god who must have meant it
[00:19.148]We must have crossed a deity whom our greed and lust offended
[00:22.036]And upon whose plentiful benevolence each of us depended
[00:25.240]The biting chill swept across the lofty life we'd built
[00:28.347]'Til mighty buildings were left crushed to look like tiny hills
[00:31.348]The frost lifted up the rock exposing all society's ills
[00:34.453]Those we tried not to think about, for what we might reveal
[00:37.766]We set a course and travelled forth to grab resources
[00:41.005]From the shrapnel of oil tankers and man of war ships
[00:44.074]Battle forces we hadn't planned to have a war with at all before
[00:48.166]But now we have a lack of choice
[00:49.996]This is the new reality, a gloomy anarchy looming
[00:53.018]Held in the hand of one human, who is that man? It's me!
[00:56.215]Can't say I feel proud, this doesn't warrant vanity
[00:59.500]The looking glass is frosted over and we cannot see
[01:02.522]So we place our faith and hopes and dreams in smoke and steam
[01:05.217]I mean, why would we go to those extremes if we don't believe?
[01:08.916]So hunker down and dig in for the coldest winter tide
[01:11.917]Since you convinced your prideful self that you've nothing to hide
[01:15.158]The wheels of progress frozen, motionless
[01:20.856]Unless we thaw all these unspoken spokes
[01:24.986]Then death is coming home
[01:27.973]The wheels of progress frozen, motionless
[01:33.462]Unless we thaw all these unspoken spokes
[01:37.493]Well, then, we're going home
[01:40.146]Ever since the first of us huddled round the fire
[01:43.188]With nothing to hide, but animal hides as attire
[01:46.088]Our entire world was centred and dependent on supplies of carbon
[01:49.746]The new oxygen that we require to respire
[01:52.521]We pampered life's complexities, manufactured luxuries
[01:55.713]While suffocating nature's lungs when we cut the trees
[01:58.723]Now our comeuppance seems to be to huddle round the fire
[02:01.872]With everything to hide and animal hides as attire
[02:04.924]What goes around will come around, whatever's underground
[02:07.701]Will come up now, you're not expecting it, and damn well hunt you down
[02:11.110]So hunker down and dig in for the coldest winter tide
[02:14.014]Since you convinced your prideful self that you've nothing to hide
[02:17.756]The wheels of progress frozen, motionless
[02:23.194]Unless we thaw all these unspoken spokes
[02:27.304]Then death is coming home
[02:30.312]The wheels of progress frozen, motionless
[02:35.683]Unless we thaw all these unspoken spokes
[02:39.704]Well, then, we're going home
[02:41.947]Our stomachs are the furnaces, our open throats the chimney
[02:45.088]Our hearts the flowing pumps that need the bellow lungs to bring heat
[02:48.266]But our brittle bodies are a pitiful device
[02:51.381]Trying to subsist upon a trickle of supplies
[02:54.299]With the vittles diminishing, I don't think it will suffice
[02:57.329]Although, species evolve quicker when it's difficult to thrive
[03:00.784]But that theory isn't something that always applies
[03:03.694]Deprive us enough, we'll suffer our inevitable demise
[03:07.117]We are each expendable, but the city must survive
[03:10.360]It's just a pleasant bonus if it keeps us alive
[03:13.526]So hunker down and dig in for the coldest winter tide
[03:16.413]Since you convinced your prideful self that you've nothing to hide
[03:20.091]The wheels of progress frozen, motionless
[03:25.500]Unless we thaw all these unspoken spokes
[03:29.443]Then death is coming home
[03:32.557]The wheels of progress frozen, motionless
[03:38.098]Unless we thaw all these unspoken spokes
[03:42.031]Well, then, we're going home
