They pass me when I close my eyes Ragged lines of ragged grey Grey their faces, grey their hands, grey Grey the ghosts that haunt this land Their pain, it echoes through the hills Though no one living ever left, no one This is Kolyma, Kolyma A graveyard for the lost, for the lost The muffled sounds of cries and moans Odd swearing, shooting and commands They all disappeared in this big land Where summer's harsh and winter kills Where gold is hidden, death's for free And freedom came from weapon steel, from steel This is Kolyma, Kolyma A graveyard for the lost, for the lost The forest conquered all the camps Broke walls, cut fences down to earth The forest conquered all the camps Broke walls, cut fences down to earth, down to earth ♪ Land of gold and land of death, a graveyard for the lost You gave the treasures, you took the men, you'll keep them forever This is Kolyma, Kolyma A graveyard for the lost, for the lost This is Kolyma, Kolyma A graveyard for the lost, for the lost The cold wind's crying for the lost He knows the sites where they all lie The wolves are howling in the woods, the woods Howls like calling up the dead I'd rather trust in their fangs Than mercy by a man's hand, by a man's hand This is Kolyma, Kolyma A graveyard for the lost, for the lost This is Kolyma, Kolyma A graveyard for the lost, for the lost (For the lost, for the lost, for the lost, for the lost, for the lost) The cold wind's crying for the lost The one who knows their names
