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
