I waved to my neighbour, my neighbour waved to me

But my neighbour is my enemy
I kept waving my arms till I could not see

It's too quiet in here and I'm beginning to freeze
I've got icicles hanging from my knees

Under fifteen feet of pure white snow
         G
Is there anybody here who feels this low?
