歌詞

In a kingdom carved by winter where the pale sun barely shone

The princess walked on silent snow with frost upon her name

She learned to smile through crystal winds and breathe in silver pain

For every lake was sealed in ice and every flower slept

Beneath the blizzard lake there lay a dragon bound in glass

The elders said if it awoke the world would drown in thaw

Yet every night she heard it sing below the frozen deep

A lonely hymn of buried spring that trembled through her heart

Wake dragon beneath the blizzard lake and hear my breaking voice

I have never seen the spring but still I choose its light

Let every shard of winter crack beneath this crown of snow

If one warm dawn must cost my life then let it bloom through me

O frozen sky remember love though all my breath turns white

The flowers I have never touched are burning in my tears

Wake dragon beneath the blizzard lake and bring the world to life

She crossed the lake on barefoot prayer while northern bells were still

The moon made mirrors of the ice and showed her what she feared

No child should watch a kingdom fade because the thaw was chained

So with her hands against the seal she offered up her springless heart

The dragon opened sapphire eyes with sorrow older than the snow

It saw no queen of royal blood but one small soul who stayed

Its breath became a field of bloom beneath the cracking frost

While silver veins of living warmth ran through her fading skin

Wake dragon above the blizzard lake and lift your mourning wings

I have never known the spring yet still I sing its name

Let every frozen valley hear the flowers in my chest

If one bright dawn must take my days then let it come through me

O bitter wind release your hold and carry off this white

The roses I have never held are opening in my tears

Wake dragon above the blizzard lake and bring the world to life

I was born where winter ruled and never asked to touch the sun

Yet if my loss can melt the chains that bind the earth in sleep

Then let my name be snow that falls and vanishes in bloom

For someone else to feel one day the season I could not reach

Now dragon of the blizzard lake arise and shake the frozen stars

The princess who never knew spring has turned her tears to dawn

No god of ice no silent crown can keep the valleys white

Her breath becomes the thawing wind her pulse the river's song

Let every buried seed remember how her sorrow shined

Let every child of winter speak the beauty of her name

She gave the spring she could not hold so all the world might bloom

And in each petal born of snow her heart is beating on
