NSN - The Melting Glaciers' Lament | Soulful Folk

Подробнее о видео

NSN - Nerve Storm Now presents "The Melting Glaciers' Lament," a soulful folk reflection on our changing world. Listen to the official audio/video for this poignant track.

This mournful song, driven by delicate fingerpicked guitar and haunting strings, confronts the urgent reality of climate change. Inspired by the record-breaking global heat recorded in January 2025 (despite a cooling La Niña) and the UN's International Year of Glaciers' Preservation, the song gives voice to the planet's silent suffering ("Mountain's ice heart bleedin' down slow"). Through vivid imagery of melting ice ("ice looks thin and weak"), rising waters ("Water keeps on climbin'"), and disrupted ecosystems, "The Melting Glaciers' Lament" explores the emotional weight of the environmental crisis and the inadequacy of our response ("Men in suits made plans... But ice still vanishes").

Let the soulful vocals and poignant lyrics resonate. What line hits hardest for you?

**Lyrics:**

[Verse 1]
Sun cracked the sky this January mornin'
Ground shakin' with a fever, a warnin' since I been born
They talked of winter's cool breath on the breeze
But heat come up like a ghost, made the trees shiver on their knees
Temperature climbin', bad sign risin' for a winter's day.

[Chorus]
Mountain's ice heart bleedin' down slow
Hear that drip like a drummin', towns below don't seem to know
Water keeps on climbin', stealin' the muddy shore away
Another crack, earth bones groanin', closin' out the day.
World keeps turnin', don't know or care anyway.

[Verse 2]
Up north where lights dance strange, ice looks thin and weak
Thinner than a memory now, after the winter storms did shriek
Polar bears haunt the barren land, fish lost in the meltin' sea
Old ways breakin' down now, plain for any fool to see.
Writin' on the wall, plain as the flood to me.

[Bridge]
Read it in the paper, heard it on the radio news
Men in suits made plans, curin' these climate blues
Said some words, hoped for the best, swore the meltin' it would cease
But ice still vanishes, a ghost through paper walls and policy pleas.

[Verse 3]
Sit here strummin', watch the red sun sinkin' low
Thinkin' 'bout twisted seasons, where green things used to grow
Wind cryin' low, like it's askin' 'Why?'
"Carry this burden so long?", driftin' through the dirty sky.
Driftin' through the dirty sky, river runnin' thick and slow nearby.
