Glaciers

G          C
Awaken the wolves
       Bb                    C
For my dreams have grown too quiet once again
G       C
Give me howling of footsteps
   Bb                     C
As time ambles drunk over tundra-glazed earth
G                C
Somewhere in the snow
        Bb                   C
Are the frozen tears and the teeth that battle broke
G              C
Twelve winters ago
     Bb                   C
When aging was living and murder was birth

((Chorus))
C         Bb    G         (Softly)
Taste the cells dividing
(F)    F                   G
All to come and all that's been
C       Bb       G
See the glaciers fighting
(F)           F                       G
Melting over, pushing underneath your skin


G              C
Surrender your warmth
              Bb                   C
To find where ice crystals end and body starts
G  C
We walk the line
        Bb                 C
Between breath and wind and death and gravity
G          C
Awaken the martyr inside
        Bb                  C
And the ground that's solid cold and petrified
G        C
Before I open my eyes
        Bb                 C
Can you thaw this away and give my past to me?


(bridge: play verse chords)

C          Bb
Awaken the wolves
         G       Bb         C
When the January moon needs lullabies
C          Bb
Awaken the wolves
         G            Bb                       C
When the sun's bright passion cannot reach the skies
C          Bb
Awaken the wolves
             G              Bb               C
'Cause we're all alone here on the plains of frost
C          Bb
Awaken the wolves
                 G                         Bb        C
And when we wake ourselves, shall winter's memory be lost?
