Antarctica

Left behind everything I knew All the colors but bone-white and sky-blue Hit the continent running Engines were humming just to break through Antarctica, my only living relative Antarctica, I can't wait anymore Under ice there's a world moving slow Carnelian stars and the bars down below Serve only vodka and gin I try to stay drunk so nobody knows Antarctica, my only living relative Antarctica, I can't wait anymore I can't wait anymore And then there's morning Each one feels like the first one Ah, morning, so clean, so pure Nothing so clear, now that I'm here When I get back to the city Everything's cluttered and pretty I won't regret my return I'll just remember the wind and the snow And the howling so loud That it alone drowns out the inside of me Antarctica, my only living relative Antarctica, I can't wait anymore I can't wait anymore I can't wait anymore
