Cold as winter, strong as stone
She faced the darkness all alone.
A silver goddess; a reflection
A mirage; a recollection
no return; no turning back
The past is gone, the future, black
Serpents gather in their nest
And she stands above the rest
Shadows hunt, she huntes the shadow
The moon is risen; she stands below
She views he world through the eyes of others
Black and white there are no colors
As she looks down upon a shattered youth
A shattered mirror shows a shattered truth
