Dead calm
Raining all over me
Too late

Sense of mortality
Dark skies
Threaten to swallow me

Down to the flame
While my flesh and my bone melt away


I defy you to stand on the crack in the ice
With the power of your hand
On the crack in the ice


Men
Raped and discarded

Are left dead
The vultures will feed on them
Lost cause

Tearing this life apart
Thrown to the flame
While my flesh and my bone melt away


I defy you to stand on the crack in the ice
With the power of your hand

On the crack in the ice

Take this moment so close to my heart

You held the white rose out
Just before we parted
Take this moment so far away in dreams

I can feel the thorns bite
But the flower died, it seems


Hold this feeling so close to my heart
You brought the passion out
Just before we parted

Hold this feeling so far away in dreams
I can feel the thorns bite
But the flower starts to bleed


I defy you to stand on the crack in the ice
With the power of your hand

On the crack in the ice
