White light, a sliver cuts, I jolt awake
Gears align, water sprays - the cold's ingrained
Plot the course, the road falls off the map
Aimless, crossing pavement, winter's glass
Weigh my heart before the gods
Is it light enough?
Will I make it past the gate?
Cold steel carries me away from here
This is where I will face my years
Ultimate, irreversible
All my crimes hidden from the council
