A desolated stretch of land In the northern wilderness An unattainable vast terrain In the yielding cold they slave Into the hold of a ship En route their misery Upon the convicts' arrival Frostbitten, covered in lice
Prisoners, impelled to forge A pathway of steel arise Remove the undesired Sacrifice, holy odyssey
Left to bleed, left to rot Necropolis of the fallen Left to bleed, left to rot Cast, into a field of graves Left to rot
Envisioned by a tyrant Under a cloak of secrecy Utterly impossible scheme Never to be finalized
