We are living in the ice age A blizzard of blind rage Remembering the spring Beneath these frozen years Buried by the snowstorm With no one to keep warm We disappear into the ice age Enshrouded in our fears Drifting alone Far from home Stagger on through the day Into dismay Innocence is so hard to recall But how can you care when you're numb from despair?

To defrost the treasure I have lost So dear was the cost Just turn away from your greed And what you need Look into the eyes of those you despise Embrace the reflection The common connection And rise Crushed by the ice storm The dawn takes a new form A bitter moon is rising The new world has been born Reverie Feel the waking dream Catastrophe Clawing at the edges I must be blind, deaf & dumb I can't see a way to stop the setting of the sun Humanity Trying to preserve sanity Staring at a blank wall White on white Nothing there to see Here I sit Staring out My window Life in the ice age A mystery to me Feeling old,& my blood's running cold Scarier still my very will to be May not hold...
