The Kolyma Route - Shores Of Null

Bound to ice and snow

Foundations groan as I pass by

World’s longest graveyard down my toes

The longest one of all

I will see you go

I will see you go

On the sullen route of silence and cold

I will see you go

Gusts of wind will blow

Death’s white cloak meets the eye

Mourning a man at every step

Every step I take

I will see you go

I will see you go

On the trodden road where memories hurt

I will see you go

I am about to cross emptiness

I’ll take you on a ride on the road of bones

The thin line beyond which every soul falls apart

Never healed, deeper scars never gone

Bones exiled laid down in gravel offer no resistance

I’ll take you on a ride throughout the memory lane

To revive all hearts who dwell in permafrost

Come meet me below, below the ice

Streams reclaim the road

Yonder where blood used to run

Whereas you think no one could ever live

It is actually impossible to leave

Thus we survive

On the road of bones

I can’t look back

Journey to the world’s end

A sad tale of white

A pole of cruelty and winter

Few steps away to none

A prison unassailable

This prison of mine

(Kolyma)

Call it a day

Returning from war

Wounds leak again

Defiling the snow

Guide me away

Till my heart will thaw

Nothing else melts away

How deep is the snow?
