"II. "Northern Lights"" lyrics

Caelum, caelum, caelum ardet

We built a bridge
Between our worlds
Beyond the spray
Above the swirl
A wooden thread sewn through our lives
We carved our names
With our knives
I smelled the smoke, I saw the fire
I felt the choke of my desire
As our bridge went up in flames
With our love caught in the way

I don't know who lit the match
But the ash is on my hands
And the burns are on my knees
I tried to cross, I splashed and screamed
But the current captured me
And swept me out to sea

Ignis lux, frigus lux, lumen vocat

Now when I see
The Northern Lights
I'm right back where I saw the sight
Of the glare up in the sky
From the flare of our life together
