En'Trance

Gripping, gripping on with tired eyes Slipping, slipping down through fired ice Sun. Sets. Slow. Paradise. Moon. Rise. Now. My dear demise. Stones, pebbles, rocks. Toss and throw. The trot of the fox, to and froe. Sticks, twigs, branches. Arch and bow. Seed, bloom, harvest. Reap and sow. Dance now, dance free She whips and turns, the flame she burns, the force of divinity Rain drops, flame shots, the heart of nature's heat Climbing through blinding sensational relief We're back to back, toe to toe, in harmonizing light The tribe has sprung, the tune they've sung, for her freedom we must fight Around her, we gather, in silence we speak The boulders, our shoulders carry until we're weak Our choices, the voices of the mountain peak Come forth now, take a bow, to the smoldering pine and tique She's humming, she numbing any fear from our bones we're fleeting, we're sleeping through blistering cold She's warming and thawing these red-hot souls Beside her, we find her, the flicker to the coal
