First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect
Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect
You live you life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line
You say you want to spend the winter in Firenza
You're so afraid to catch a dose of influenza
You live your life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
Now if I tell you that you suffer from delusions
You pay your analyst to reach the same conclusions
You live your life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
Canary in a coalmine
First to fall over when the atmosphere is less than perfect
Your sensibilities are shaken by the slightest defect
You live your life like a canary in a coalmine
You get so dizzy even walking in a straight line
Canary in a coalmine...The arctic views it's distant vast
And the shifting breeze that blow my horizon
Where stormclouds mass along the skies
Dark and brooding across the blistered broken land
Here flew long streams of freezing water
In a saga it lived once
Descended to the brinks that tower to the sky
Sound my cry throughout creation
Still I'm enlocked on these ridges
Where the sun forever vanished
Once a world was ever splended
That took my soul
Now the world is too old
So take me biting winds
My sould travel with a black heart
When the darkness close in on me
There's this world where I can breathe
Still the saga will live on
And the breeze that blew my horizon
Behind these waves of ice...
