lyrics

As terror wears off, my vision is no longer marred
But there's not much to see around, just trees in darkness
Those countless towering trunks and spreading canopies -
Like hands raised up in silent plea for mercy,
For help that won't come...

...And dreary is
The clouds' colourplay: The fiery shades
Mark clearly the place where my home city stood.
But still the larger part of skies is occupied by eerie
Grey-greenish glow. As if above
The thick of clouds the northern lights have built
Their glorious, yet windy bridge between horizons...

How many others have escaped as well?
Stampeded animals that have preferred the freezing death
Over the fiery one, how many runners out there
Are trying hard to get away from fire
Still knowing this night never ends?
I wonder if they
Are tortured by their guilt, as I am now:
For failing to protect, for running
from the decisive fight; I've never learnt
To stand my ground...

And the ground beneath my feet
Would always turn out a quicksand or a mire,
Where every step is turning bad to worse.

But everything is going to be hardened
By the forthcoming frost.
And for as long as I can feel my legs
I must be moving...
