lyrics

In the heart of winter
In the heart of the dead
Many fear to enter
Yet still we must tread

Deep in the woods where my lover lies
Covered in frost this love never dies
Buried in dirt our bodies entwined
Eternally one this love is divine

Told we were not to enter
Warned we would not return
Plagued by the ghosts of winter
In dark and cold we burn

Deep in the ground where my body lies
Blanket of frost this love never dies
Dirt worms and filth our bodies entwined
Two become one this love is divine

Oh my love, my love, oh my dead lover

An ancient field of battle
Now covered in trees
Hear our death rattle
On the twilight’s frigid breeze

A spirit army surrounds us
An overwhelming mass
In snow and ice they drown us
Our future now part of the past
