[Verse 1]
He lies quiet now in the nothing
And there is no epitaph, no stone

[Pre-Chorus]
Yet his legacy flows
Like a river

[Verse 2]
Walker of barren paths, seer of night
Friend of shadows, a carrier of light

[Chorus]
And his legacy flows
Like a river from ice
The hungry heart opens
And drinks from this fountain
So cold

[Bridge]
There are no promises
In his solitary grave
There is no salvation
Only words

[Verse 4]
But what then are these precious streams of coldness from the heights?
They will never reach the fields below
[Verse 5]
What is this silent grave to those who never sought to find it?
What is greatness to the dead?
To the dead

[Chorus]
And his legacy flows
Like a river from ice
The hungry heart opens
And drinks from this fountain
So cold
