Ice Age

I walk as a child
Shrinking down below the trees
That enclose me inside
A world beginning to freeze

I walk as a child on the antarctic snow
With the glaciers all wrinkled with cracks
The years have come and gone leaving the lush world behind
Soon the cold will creep in to take a bite

If I go much further I'll have no legs to hold
No arms to console me and no mind to control me
The snow won't meld and the beast will hunt closely
But I found myself a place to enfold me
It says

Don't you worry I will keep you close
Wrapped inside my arms I won't let go
You're still a child evolving from the sea you know
Watch the ice age come and suddenly go

The world I knew had borders
The people I knew held greed
My mother's nature order is to
Wipe out all of the weeds

And the fields are tundra
And all that's left are trees
I encroach on everyone of them
To shelter from the freeze, they say

Don't you worry we will keep you close
Wrapped inside our arms we won't let go
You're still a child evolving from the sea you know
Watch the ice age come and suddenly go

When the snow won't melt
And the cold won't go
I will walk the whole forest
Just to return home
Just to return home
They say

Don't you worry we will keep you close
Wrapped inside our arms we won't let go
You're still a child evolving from the sea you know
Watch the ice age come and suddenly go

When the snow won't melt
And the cold won't go
I will walk the whole forest
Just to return home
