The North

[Verse 1]
Break all my bones, turn them to dust
I feel so selfish, but you are a must
Skies bleed out white, stone rivers freeze dry
Your blood is the rain, we leave out on the ice

[Pre-Chorus 1]
That'll break my world in two

[Verse 2]
Thirty-four days, in six days we've stayed
In hilltop side country homes
Meeting abroad, with little to lose
Servin' the needs of two jealous young fools

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Who'll tear my world in two?

[Chorus 1]
Our ways have been changing, I've been so compliant
Faster and faster, but I wouldn't buy it
Winter is running in its course
I turn my heart to the North

[Verse 3]
Wrapped in dust, in a clearing I freeze
I wind through the pines, with snow at my knees
Tracin' old steps over powdery miles
The top of my head, exposed to the sky

[Verse 4]
You kept me alive, inside an embrace
I'd cross every line to be back in this place
Shut up inside, or buried away
Calgary longs for the ring of your name

[Pre-Chorus 3]
To cling to the things that I knew

[Chorus 2]
Our ways have been changing, I've been so compliant
Faster and faster, but I wouldn't buy it
Winter is running in its course
I turn my heart to the North
Fates had been braided, but you were defiant
Searchin' for something, but you'll never find it
Winter is running in its course
And I turn my heart to the North

[Outro]
Winter is running in its course
And I turn my heart to the North
