Teeth In the Snow

[Verse 1]
Wind cuts sideways,
Sharp as wire.
Three silhouettes drifting
Past a buried spire.
Something trailing,
Soft but grave—
A heartbeat carved
From a deeper cave.

[Pre-Chorus]
Our tracks dissolved,
But another stayed—
Stalking through the frost
Like a vow unmade.

[Chorus 1]
There are teeth in the snow and they’re hunting slow,
Mapping every fracture you let show.
Stay veiled, stay warm, keep your pulse controlled—
Something in the drifts wants what you hold.

[Verse 2]
One friend trembling,
Threadbare clad—
Fabric failing
’Neath the cold gone mad.
Pressure tightening,
Air grown thin—
Like the whole storm choosing
Who to usher in.

[Pre-Chorus]
A low-toned tremor,
Nothing born of wind—
A creature drawing borders
No one rescinds.

[Chorus 2]
There are teeth in the snow and they’re hunting slow,
Reading every weakness you don’t show.
Stand firm, breathe low, guard your ember’s glow—
Something in the white marks friend from foe.

[Bridge]
I tore off my coat,
Cast it round his frame—
A lone red ember
For a pallid claim.
The shadow hovered,
Breath turned dire—
Accepting our offering
To extinguish fire.

[Verse 3]
A massive figure,
Sunk and low,
Fur like thunderheads
Rolling through snow.
Not mercy, nor malice—
Just winter’s rule…
Jólakötturinn watching,
Ancient, brutal, cool.

[Chorus 3]
There are teeth in the snow and they’re hunting slow,
Tracing hearts too fragile when they glow.
Hold tight, stay lit, never let frost grow—
Something in the dusk decides who goes.

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus 4 – Final]
There are teeth in the snow, solemn and severe,
Following your footprints when the dark draws near.
Step sharp, stay warm, keep your shadows close—
For winter’s oldest watcher walks this coast

Horrorcore pop-rock, biting electric guitar riffs, punchy drum beats, disco, dark wave, new wave, snarky, male, catchy
