Keyboardist Santeri Kallio adds: "I travelled as far north as I could, to the last corner of the Arctic Ocean, and there I found the inspiration for 'Fog To Fog'; dead black cliffs and feelings frozen forever. A journey to the Norwegian fjords, where no one lives voluntarily...maybe the Vikings once upon a time, most likely out of necessity."

Lyrics:

Between light and shadow
In the haze bleak and gray
In the foggy veil of blue
I was drawn by the dawn
Outlined by the day
There among my own
Reared by my kith and kin
I learnt the words and the everyday chores
The toil, the lot of man

I was born with the sun
(Number and knowledge)
Perished with the moon I was
(I gained from the day)
The song of life's splendor
I was taught by the night
And wise were the dead
(Number and knowledge)
Who stood by my side
(I gained from the day)
As I walked straight and narrow
On my path in the sun

From the vault of the heavens
I stole the moon's magic song
From the pearl in the shell
Spied the secret words
Just to forget it all
Between light and shadow
In the haze bleak and gray
In the dusk I faded
Disappeared into the night

I was born with the sun
(Number and knowledge)
Perished with the moon I was
(I gained from the day)
As I walked straight and narrow
On my path in the sun

I was born with the sun
(Number and knowledge)
Perished with the moon I was
(I gained from the day)
The song of life's splendor
I was taught by the night
And wise were the dead
(Number and knowledge)
Who stood by my side
(I gained from the day)
As I walked straight and narrow
On my path in the sun
