[Verse 1] Boots on the ridge Thin crust, one wrong step The mountain holds its breath Then breaks its jaw White shelves crack Snow turns to teeth You hear the roar Before you see it [Pre-Chorus] Run, run, run Too late to turn Up the slope The world unlearns Yodel-ay-hee Your name in the wind Yodel-ay-hee Then silence begins [Chorus] Avalanche! Bury the trail Avalanche! Bite through the vale Yodel-ay-hee Under the white Avalanche! End of the fight [Verse 2] Pines snap clean Like ribs in a fist A helmet spins In the ice-black mist Hands claw air Mouth full of snow No one hears The bodies below [Pre-Chorus] Run, run, run The slope is alive Yodel-ay-hee Who gets out alive? Yodel-ay-hee The mountain sings back Yodel-ay-hee Then it cuts to black [Chorus] Avalanche! Bury the trail Avalanche! Bite through the vale Yodel-ay-hee Under the white Avalanche! End of the fight [Bridge] Down in the drift A heartbeat thins Ice in the lungs Stone in the skin Yodel-ay-hee From deep in the storm Yodel-ay-hee Where the cold is born [Final Chorus] Avalanche! Bury the trail Avalanche! Bite through the vale Yodel-ay-hee Under the white Avalanche! End of the fight Avalanche! Hear the call Avalanche! One and all Yodel-ay-hee Under the white Avalanche! End of the fight
