"Northward" lyrics
Where barren mountains rise
Soft echoes roam the moonless night
A canvas, snow-powdered white
A wave supreme of daunting Arctic light
Far, far away from any noise
The solar wind starts whispering its call to court
Behold the answer of the true northern gods
Magnetospheric turbulence to guide your heart
Northward, we stray
In open terrain
Vast expanses of icy terrain
My domain
I find solace, profound in our lore
Where frosted tales resound forever more
It's what my very essence yearns to see
Where desolation holds its strange allure
Northward, we stray
Vast expanses of icy terrain
We find solace, profound in our lore
Where frosted tales resound forever more
It's what our very essence yearns to see
Where desolation holds its strange allure
Far away
Far from any noise
Far away
The solar wind starts whispering its call to court
Far away
Behold the answer from the true northern gods
Far away
Where barren mountains rise
Soft echoes roam the moonless night
A canvas, snow-powdered white
A wave supreme of daunting Arctic light
I find solace profound in our lore
Where frosted tales resound forever more
It's what my very essence yearns to see
Where desolation holds its strange allure
In the aurora's dance, an opus weaves
With notes only a northerner retrieves
Northerner retrieves
Away from summer's damp embrace
Vast boundaries we've torn, seeking space
Northward, we wander, drawn by the untamed
Where frozen whispers kiss the wind's refrain
Amidst the harshest beauty, we endure
Embracing the cold and pure
Here we are under the stellar dome of stars
Try take command, there's nothing you can do
Too big or small to change the fact
That here and now defines the truth
So humble up
Take the reins and let go
The doom of every legend ever calling you
Through the mycorrhizal symbiosis, me and you
Either way
Left is right today
Up is down, it's all the same to me
Embracing the untamed, the cold, the pure
Until reality comes knocking at the door
Then I see
Who I am
Who you are, in this moment
The only place to be, to live until released
To shape the mountains for posterity
Soft echoes roam the moonless night
A canvas, snow-powdered white
A wave supreme of daunting Arctic light
Far, far away from any noise
The solar wind starts whispering its call to court
Behold the answer of the true northern gods
Magnetospheric turbulence to guide your heart
Northward, we stray
In open terrain
Vast expanses of icy terrain
My domain
I find solace, profound in our lore
Where frosted tales resound forever more
It's what my very essence yearns to see
Where desolation holds its strange allure
Northward, we stray
Vast expanses of icy terrain
We find solace, profound in our lore
Where frosted tales resound forever more
It's what our very essence yearns to see
Where desolation holds its strange allure
Far away
Far from any noise
Far away
The solar wind starts whispering its call to court
Far away
Behold the answer from the true northern gods
Far away
Where barren mountains rise
Soft echoes roam the moonless night
A canvas, snow-powdered white
A wave supreme of daunting Arctic light
I find solace profound in our lore
Where frosted tales resound forever more
It's what my very essence yearns to see
Where desolation holds its strange allure
In the aurora's dance, an opus weaves
With notes only a northerner retrieves
Northerner retrieves
Away from summer's damp embrace
Vast boundaries we've torn, seeking space
Northward, we wander, drawn by the untamed
Where frozen whispers kiss the wind's refrain
Amidst the harshest beauty, we endure
Embracing the cold and pure
Here we are under the stellar dome of stars
Try take command, there's nothing you can do
Too big or small to change the fact
That here and now defines the truth
So humble up
Take the reins and let go
The doom of every legend ever calling you
Through the mycorrhizal symbiosis, me and you
Either way

Up is down, it's all the same to me
Embracing the untamed, the cold, the pure
Until reality comes knocking at the door
Then I see
Who I am
Who you are, in this moment
The only place to be, to live until released
To shape the mountains for posterity
