lyrics

Snow isolates the small towns of the north
Where the city's but a rumour
Arctic storms batter the roofs and the wires
Threatening to blow it all away

Sometimes staring out the window
At the void above
I feel that I'm out there
Not here

Complex thoughts and morbid schemes disturb the lonely man
Who's chosen to ignore his kind
Disconnected, alienated from this world of steel
He can't forget how it stole his dreams
We're looking for a reason
Beyond these towers and spires
The symbols of our worldly arrogance

I look out beyond the sky
Trying to find something else

The snow is piled up on the roof above
It'll be three feet high before spring
And when the thaw comes and the birds begin to sing
The cycle turns again, never will it end

I look out beyond the sky
Trying to find something else
