lyrics
The Ice Age Cometh
Verse 1
The Ice Age Cometh,
like a thief in the night.
Creeping out of the north,
it’s a terrible plight.
It was here long ago,
and now its coming once again.
History repeats itself,
a lesson to all men.
In a vision of tomorrow,
I feel the the fierce wind blow.
I’m losing all perception.
I’m blinded by the snow.
There springtime is over,
no more mountains to climb.
It’s been a short reign for man,
in the spectrum of time.
The Ice Age Cometh,
we finally see the end.
The Ice Age Cometh,
once again.
Bridge
Our Mother planet earth,
in cryonic suspension lies.
Comforting her children,
no one hears their ghostly cries.
Crystalline caverns and tombs carved in snow
no markers are provided telling who lies below, oh no.
The spring of man, a winters thaw.
It was ours for a season.
Now its gone, just history.
No one knows the reason,
no one knows the reason.
No one knows the reason,
no one knows the reason.
Verse 2
The Ice Age Cometh,
is there no one left to save.
The cold wind cast us,
into the grave.
Is it Mother Nature killing,
those who’ve done her wrong.
We’ve treated her so badly,
ignored her all along.
In a vision of tomorrow,
I feel the fierce wind blow.
I’m losing all perception,
I’m blinded by the snow.
As the glaciers spin their web,
about the fragile world of man,
nature comes to claim her kingdom,
and make it hers again.
The Ice Age Cometh,
we finally see the end.
The Ice Age Cometh,
once again.
The Ice Age Cometh,
a lesson to all men.
The Ice Age Cometh,
once again.
