Let it fall around you.
The mist calls, for you alone.
Just let it come,
Just let it come to you in the darkest blue night
In the darkest blue night
In the farthest of the light
In the smartest of the slight
Let the blizzard and the ice
Take you away from this fire
Take you away from the dire
Let it blow you to your destiny, crier...
As you came to the dream world
Fell away from the awakening, the horror
Landed among this cold air,
You heard the dancers skate across the ice
Echoing a high-pitched mystery
While the blue darkness returns their call with its soothing bass
The blue light, it shines on you,
Because you're the newest addition.
To the dance, to the dance,
To the dance, check your stance
They won't spear you with a lance
So keep it together, let that power that lives in your heart
Come out, take part in the dreamy dance...
Across the acidity of your fear
You want to know, who those dancers are
Why they spin and then swirl all together,
Synchronizing all together to stir up your love for mystery
The frozen water, it falls through,
Your love for mystery is stronger than your fear
But you don't stir it up like you should
You don't let it take your heart to where it should be
Suddenly the dark blue winds are pressed to your heart
Don't scream, it's only just the initation
Let your fear be extinguished
While you join the strange dream.
As your heart no longer melts-- your fear'* gone
The steam, it awes all of us that stand here in the blue darkness
We watch you, you're our little show
You're calmer than the hurricane's eye
Smoother than the finest lie
Cooler than the frigid's blizzard's try
Reverence is yours among us
Lead us, you're the icon of the ice-- help us whirl out the world
Calm their fiery hearts, slow their rage
Until their hatred is water and steam in our minds!
