now the vines start wrapping around our necks

choking us, they're alive to kill us

grabbing knives we start cutting them from our necks

running to the ice-ship, trying to escape

as we get to the ice-ship, half of us get pulled down

vines wrap around our legs and trip us

cutting vines frantically, as they slither 'round our necks

we've got to cut them off and get inside the ship

into the ice-ship most of us keep slicing vines

stopping them from entering the vessel

last one out I'm slicing the ones 'round my throat and legs

jumping in, the door slices an entering vine

soaring south above the sea, terrified and speeding on

get to the dome and drop below, find the water-well

finally we find it and escape to the other side

rise up above the ice-plane, and soar away
