The North

It’s so cold in this country Every road home is long He had a map that he bought For the price of his soul He had a reason to go there And a warm place to stay And when it came time to leave It was never the right day Good luck, bad luck, survival Sleep is my friend and my rival Good luck, bad luck, survival There was a girl who he married And he left far behind He couldn’t picture her face now It was like he was blind Up at five in the morning Every breath was a storm It’s so cold in this country You can never get warm Good luck, bad luck, survival Sleep is my friend and my rival Good luck, bad luck, survival Good luck, bad luck, survival Sleep is my friend and my rival Good luck, bad luck, survival It’s a strange disappearance It’s a real mystery Is he asleep in the snow? And does he feel free? There’s a person he once was In a place far away It’s so cold in this country October to May Good luck, bad luck, survival Sleep is my friend and my rival Good luck, bad luck, survival Good luck, bad luck, survival Sleep is my friend and my rival Good luck, bad luck, survival Survival Good luck, bad luck, survival
