Gaze upon the crystal realm
Spellbound to enchanted kingdom
Forgotten land of frost and snow
(Where rivers freeze and cold winds blow)
Peaks upon a diamond fortress
Jewels within a frozen crown
Those icy spires rise as monoliths
From the permafrost below
Her will unbound
Her hand extends
A glimpse of beauty as the freezing wind descends
Cold her anger, swift her vengeance
Freezing hearts within their chest
Snowbound and buried as the countless graves
Of the souls she lays to rest
Let every thrall
Her will entice
Slaves to resplendent Queen upon a throne of ice
Let frozen blades be held aloft unto the snowfall
Flash of steel to pierce the sky
Blazing t'ward the evenfall
With fires burning, may our souls
Defy the creeping grasp of winter madness
Until the blood runs cold
Fade not b'fore the light is gone
Nor wither when the night takes hold
A burning sky
Upon its descent
Light passing crystal fall
A frozen veil from Heaven sent
A thousand souls, t'ward her drawn
No one to light your path
Nor hear your prayers to see the dawn
Lost in the snowfall
A world is still, beneath her frozen hand
No dawn can stay the wintry bite
Nor break the grey to reach
The ground to which her hands benight
Spoils of the light will be undone
Flash of untempered gaze
That gleams as ice beneath the winter sun
Cold wreath enshrines the queen
Of Ice
And Diamond Dust
