The Light Continent Peter Hammill

The Light Continent - Peter Hammill
[Chorus]
All the fields that you've overflown are frozen
They flow like glass down the frame in formlessness
Only the fragile fluttering of your heart still marks you chosen
Chosen to dare, your face defiant of the featureless
Your face defies the featureless
You're facing the featureless

[Verse 1]
A horizon of light blurs the boundaries of whiteness
As the distance is shimmered into timeless brightness now

[Verse 2]
And the slow flooding tide is begun as it's ended –
The barometer dropping and the fog descended
Down, down

[Verse 3]
In this endless day, at this hour long-appointed
Subterranean humming and the compass unpointed
The compass disjointed, the compass down

[Bridge]
Deep in the core the heart of ice forms
A tempo of life like that of stalagmites
A flood of the frozen
The flux of the blood
Aflame in antarctic white
