Track Insight / Lyrics
Trudging through drifts, boots crunch the snow
Inch by inch, toward an ancient glow
Crisp air stinging, breath misting the chill
The heart pounds faster, feels the thrill
Solemn stones rise like sentries from the earth
Glacial carvings whisper tales of rebirth
Our steps echo loud, a solitary beat
Seeking what lies within, where shadows meet
And then, a chime cuts through the stillness abruptly
Ting-ting-ting, as temple gates slowly buckle
Warm red light spills out, like lava from a vent
A beacon calling, an invitation to relent
Find your fingers, now, in these cold, dark days
Winter's secrets waiting, in hidden ways
Step through temple gates, into crimson light
In the heart of stone, your ghosts take flight
Inside, the air clings warm as lovers' breath
Candleflame shadows dance on stonewrought death
We tread careful paths, where worshipers once stood
Echoes of a faith, in rituals unspewed
Above, a sun disc glows, polished to a sheen
Ancient priests' imaginations, ideas unseen
The stone is cool beneath, our reverent hands
Paying homage, to the mysteries of old lands
And then, a chime cuts through the stillness abruptly
Ting-ting-ting, as temple gates slowly buckle
Warm red light spills out, like lava from a vent
A beacon calling, an invitation to relent
Find your fingers, now, in these cold, dark days
Winter's secrets waiting, in hidden ways
Step through temple gates, into crimson light
In the heart of stone, your ghosts take flight
In the fire's warmth, our gloves begin to shed
Exchanging ice for skin, as foreheads meet
Whispers slid into the heat, secrets purged
Two souls align, no barriers to budge
Find your fingers, now, in these cold, dark days
Winter's secrets waiting, in hidden ways
Step through temple gates, into crimson light
In the heart of stone, your ghosts take flight
Frozen shells now empty, scattered by the wind
Temple gates once more sealed, secrets locked within
We wend our way, hand in hand, back into the snow
Having danced alone, beneath the temple glow.
