The fire has to burns, when you are gone. Life in the North goes on without you
My fire will burn, with you or not. My pa**ion will overcome
Year's end, coming home, and what do you have to show for yourself?
I amount to nothing more, than what they understand
Feel the sense of confusion, for your wins you cannot explain
See the lack of comprehension, over the ground you worked so hard to gain
The fire still burns, when you are gone
My fire will burn, with you or not
We live for the thrill of the struggle
We live for the love of our sorrows
I fight the fight I can never win, but I fight the fight for the fight itself
And so I am rich with failure? Brutal north, bring me down again
I guess these are the risks you take, when you've been gone for so many years
Would they even look up from their tables, if suddenly you appeared?
The fire still burns, when you are gone
My fire will burn, with you or not
We live for the thrill of the struggle
We live for the love of our sorrows
Brutal north bring me down
Brutal north bring me down again
I stood at the foot of the mill again, like a metaphor of northern time
I watched them burn off the excess, flames to the sky
The fire still burns, when your are gone
My fire will burn, with you or not
So many small losses, for one giant gain
Quiet victories spent alone, along the way
Now I wander the streets as out of place as the day I left
No better off. Nothing has changed. These are the risks we take...I guess?
Brutal north bring me down
Brutal north bring me down again
