There's a fire where a river should flow
A dessert where a forest should grow
Dying light and the frozen snow
Light is fading in her soul
The snow builds up and the mountains glow
Enough to make the world here know
Her silence wavers in a moment's note
The heart of a lion cut so slow
Bearing down and festering
The pain of the dagger well too known
Slices small and the pain so known
Her cries internal and silence shown
The pain of the dagger well too known
Her mind is screaming and her voice wired shut
Protection to the ones she loves
Her mind is made but her body knows
The pain of the dagger in the flesh
Cold eyes watch from the frozen snow
Her pain has a face she can't know
Chastised for all she knows
Told to calm in the raging snow
Her soul turns cold and the mountains know
The heart of a lion is cut so slow
Her pray runs away at the speed of light
Never to be seen in the falling snow
Justice dead and pain so clear
The pain of the dagger all too real
Hunger rages and pains so bright
One by one the years flow by
The heart of the cub is slowly thrown
And the heart of the lion is cut so slow
Tamed and docile her souls submits
The frozen snow makes the mountains glow
Numbing the heart to the dagger as it shows
Her mouth wired shut to her silent cries
Not to be heard from the frozen snow
The fire glows where a river should flow
And the cub turned killer hides in the snow
