The North - Stars

It’s so cold in this country

Every road home is long

He had a map that he bought

For the price of his soul

He had a reason to go there

And a warm place to stay

And when it came time to leave

It was never the right day

Good luck, bad luck, survival

Sleep is my friend and my rival

Good luck, bad luck, survival

There was a girl who he married

And he left far behind

He couldn’t picture her face now

It was like he was blind

Up at five in the morning

Every breath was a storm

It’s so cold in this country

You can never get warm

Good luck, bad luck, survival

Sleep is my friend and my rival

Good luck, bad luck, survival

Good luck, bad luck, survival

Sleep is my friend and my rival

Good luck, bad luck, survival

It’s a strange disappearance

It’s a real mystery

Is he asleep in the snow?

And does he feel free?

There’s a person he once was

In a place far away

It’s so cold in this country

October to May

Good luck, bad luck, survival

Sleep is my friend and my rival

Good luck, bad luck, survival

Good luck, bad luck, survival

Sleep is my friend and my rival

Good luck, bad luck, survival

Survival

Good luck, bad luck, survival
