Lyrics Fimbul - Tusmørke

Fimbul

Frozen sun
Far away as the year is young
Lights are low, seems all life has gone
As the shadows grow sharp and long
On the snow
No-one knows when Fimbul finally comes
Oh, how stark
Dazzling, brilliant, glittering sparks
Dancing flakes against blackened bark
Blink three times and once more it’s dark
Nights are slow
No-one knows when Fimbul finally comes
Birches reach, their bodies bleached
Like whale bones drying on a frosty beach
Guarding graves with wordless speech
Lectures no living creatures teach
The dead have seen the end of this world
In the dead
Of a winter heavy as lead
Breath is smoking with each word said
In a halo 'round every head
Voices low
No-one knows when Fimbul finally comes
Birches reach, their bodies bleached
Like whale bones drying on a frosty beach
Guarding graves with wordless speech
Lectures no living creatures teach
The dead have seen the end of this world
