Analysis of Ten Below
In Winter's grip
Through driving snow
You'll feel her wrath
At Ten Below
The creek will freeze
The wind will blow
As nature sleeps
At Ten Below
The bitter chill
From head to toe
You'll feel the sting
At Ten Below
Your heart will race
The blood will flow
To stay alive
At Ten Below
Take shelter now
Near fire's glow
You're safe inside
At Ten Below
Until you've been
You'll never know
When stuck outside
At Ten Below
