The Year of the Blizzard Lyrics & Tabs by Pharaoh
The Year of the Blizzard
guitar chords lyrics
Sleep now my child
We will rest tonight
I am your shelter
From the storm outside
There is no sadness
In our song tonight
So until tomorrow
Say goodnight
At dawn, all I see is darkness
Deep snow surrounds the house
And there’s no getting out
For days, we’re trapped inside this fortress
The doors are frozen locked
The windows icy blocks
I know we won’t get out tomorrow
The doors are frozen locked
The windows icy blocks
I know we won’t get out tomorrow
It seems our freedom’s taken
Replaced by desperation
And as the weeks go by in sorrow
We watch each other starve
And I prepare to carve
At a month’s demand
Our supply surpassed
My secret plan
A grim repast
A chance to stay alive
In this world of frozen light
Hate to see the hunger
In your eyes
Take a piece from me
Even though I’m weakening
You will be alive
Another night
It might be insane
But there’s no other way
Only one can survive
So I’ll keep you alive
Ignoring the pain
I try to sustain
I hope you don’t see
That I’m feeding you… me
Sleep now my child
I will keep you warm
Don’t let your spirits
Be buried by the storm
Just close your eyes
Don’t want you to see
Why you keep living
How much I bleed
So with this knife
I give you life
This is the last time
Come take my heart
Just as the sunshine
Comes to melt the dark
Last meal is given
The child is fed
Now the sun is risen
And I am dead
A chance to stay alive
In this world of frozen light
I took away the hunger
From your eyes
It was all in secrecy
But in piece by piece of me
I have given you
Another life
