Extreme North Of The Compass

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Extreme north of the compass December skies look gray and joyless The world awaits in barren splendor For someone to stir the embers [Verse 2] We are sinking into numbness Welcoming it like an old friend And my confidence is crumbling Like a house of cards again Is that the darkness you inhabit? Well, it's a blanket 'round your shoulders And all this vexing of the spirit Always wake up feeling colder, oh, oh, oh So colder [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Like a friendship never nurtured Like a lover long forsaken Like a liar who can no longer tell When he's telling the truth or faking, oh, oh, oh Or faking, oh, oh, oh, oh Or faking, yes, oh, oh, oh Faking
