Come in From the Cold

Welcome to the house of awakening.

The gods were busy during the night.

Stay awhile and see what's happening.

The world will be all right.

The ancient warrior sleeps for awhile,

And his mask begins to bleed.

Mother nature has a rainbow smile

From the watering of her seed.

Her little children are playing at your feet.

Ushering you into a windy room.

Wishing for you to take a seat.

Doing their best to help love bloom.

They bring her though another door

You feel as if the sky has become the floor.
