An Antarctic

An Antarctic                  No-one goes there, no-one knows where
has no shadow                exactly to go
no people                        in situations of lonliness
no pillow                         and ghostliness so

                                       There's a calm, a world of harm awaiting you
An Antarctic                   and its true that time alone does affect you
is extremely alone           the nothingness is eerie and what do you know
freezes on                        when you're lost on a white page with no reference points
the telephone
                                        Started out far better than the way you end  
                                         all this hellish emptiness you cannot defend
White crush                      can't depend on seeing out the moment
ice rush                             the one when you are lost
iceberg's                           its all for experience, its all at your cost
slow motion push
                                         Lost you think you are on a white page now
                                         frost is crystal path you leave                                 When the white
Crystal cage                     to get back to home how                                         is all consuming
sorrowful rage                  you still believed you were lost                             frozenness
An Antarctic's                   but that you'd get back home somehow.              you're resuming
for an age                                                                                                       frozenness, frozenness
                                                                                                                      you've not chosen
                                                                                                                    lonliness
An Antarctic                                                                                               have you     
gets to you                                                                                                   you just went for a walk
in blue foot                                                                                                   then you just withdrew
of lonely shoe                                                                                               withdraw now
                                                                                                                     a little further
                                                                                                                    cold fever gets you
An Antarctic                                                                                                frozenness, frozenness
just withdrew                                                                                                 is the only thing
any voice                                                                                                        that's true 
of rescue                                                                                                       you wanted something
                                                                                                                      real
                                                                                                                      ice you could not
Broken bridge                                                                                               feel
melted fridge                                                                                                frozenness is lonliness
on the ridge                                                                                                   it is just a wheel
of enemy                                                                                                       solitary's voluntary
                                                                                                                       its a turning wheel.
Unspoken clime
losing time
mist in                           I can't connect, now I will select to be away from the elect now 
the memory                   Take my snowmobile where no-one can stop it
                                      Breathe the ample air, sample nothing in particular there
                                       Doesn't matter where I go, doesn't matter what I know
                                      when I'm in Antaractica now, when I'm devoid of wow
An Antarctic
is thinning down            I'll post a flag in nowhere, see a penguin there
trimming islands            Let ice clouds dominate the air, lonliness beyond compare
of no-man town.             Doesn't matter what I think, if I disappear like invisible ink
                                        Doesn't matter in Antarctica now, when I avoid a world of wow

                                        For an emptiness complete, filled to full, hollowed out
                                        Doesn't matter if I stay in or I go about
                                        Doesn't matter, doesn't matter
                                         I hear a whisper when I shout

                                        Doesn't matter, matter at all
                                         I'm anti-matter, none foot tall
                                         Doesn't matter if I rise, I'll fall again
                                         Doesn't matter, marks out of ten.
