Song information
This one was inspired by a nor'easter we had back in February - it made me think about Norse mythology and "Fimbulwinter," a three year long winter that came before "Ragnarok," the end times, featuring numerous natural disasters and the death of the gods. Both myths are found in the Poetic Edda, a collection of old Norse narrative poems that may date as far back as 1000 C.E.

Lyrics
Snow is coming, before long we'll be buried
Blanket of purest white atop frozen earth
Howling wind bites your cheek, and chills to the bone

Fimbulwinter, three years of harshest cold
Then the war of the gods and the end of the world, or so it is foretold

In the poem, three winters then war spreads throughout the land
Blood is spilled of gods and men by the serpent
All the world set ablaze, and the sky splits in two

Fimbulwinter, from their homes the people flee
Then the sun turns to black and Earth tumbles down into the sea 

Dreaming of Fimbulwinter on this snowy night
Dreaming of Fimbulwinter on this nor'easter night
