I tried to capture the feelings of the very first men who reached the North Pole.
 The long preparatons (about 2 minutes before the vocals kick in).
 The freezing cold (eerie acoustic middle section) and the punchline is that any trail you take from the pole, you're definitely going south.

 Years of preparations
 And finally we're here
 To begin our exploration
 Be cautious and persevere

 At dawn we set the course
 Through fields of ice and snow
 Where no man's been before
 Towards the pole we go

 Dark clouds gather while we sleep
 Blizzard starts on day five
 Suddenly we're in too deep
 Struggling to stay alive
 Impossible to see the cracks
 And so we lose a sleigh
 Impossible to stay on track
 Expedition gone astray

 As far as eye can see
 White fields fill the scenery
 The further north we get

 We go where no one ever had the chance to go
 We are the pioneers, pioneers in snow
 We go and conquer vast and icy plains of northpole
 Our expedition's the very first to know

 Bearing the magnetic north
 Any trail we take is southbound

 Finally the sky clears
 And we are moving on
 Our destination is near
 Seems like we have won

 Place our flag on the top of the world
 Feel relieved and proud
 In this place there is no north
 Any trail we take is southbound

 The further north we get
 The sun will never set

 We go where no one ever had the chance to go
 We are the pioneers, pioneers in snow
 We go and conquer vast and icy plains of northpole
 Our expedition's the very first to know

 Bearing the magnetic north
 Any trail we take is southbound
