Winter came to stay one day
Decided never to go away
The windows' eyes breathe out the dusk
A ghost ship rests, its keel in rust
Life once spoke here loud and clear
Now there's only cold and fear
But red flags alone remain
Untouched by dust, free from stain
City zero, city zero
City zero
Boiled salt for the country in flow
Now no country, city zero stands in ice
Yet flags still wave, chasing fear, precise
City zero, city zero
City zero
Ready to revive
An icebreaker king on the horizon, alive
Atomic chains in reactors play
The reaction warms city zero each day
They thought city zero was gone
New maps were hastily drawn
But city zero, warmed, revived
The salt mills again have thrived
Now tungsten butterflies take flight
This city sings with volcanic might
With salted waters from four seas
It rises strong, as if with ease
City zero, city zero
City zero
Boiled salt for the country in flow
Now no country, city zero stands in ice
Yet flags still wave, chasing fear, precise
City zero, city zero
City zero
Ready to revive
An icebreaker king on the horizon, alive
Atomic chains in reactors play
The reaction warms city zero each day
City zero, city zero
City zero
Once boiled salt for the whole land's cheer
Now a new country stands
A splendid age near
A strong man returns
To city zero, sincere
City zero, city zero
City zero
Now it lives
The icebreaker king waits in the bay
Atomic chains in reactors play
The reaction warms city zero each day
