Cold

I find myself in places that I've never been before
Tried to beat the weakness but I'm not even close
The sands of time are falling and it's hard to get this far
Left behind in chaos I keep going the best I can

Cold, the weight of the world seems so strong

My eyes staring soulless as I feel myself unsafe
The menace of the watcher a persistent race to hell
(To be) told the unforsaken sins to the mirror in the wall
But the pain implicit is constant, it feels like heavy chains

Cold, my heart that weighs like a stone

I can sometimes fall away from me
And I can other times hide and disappear from me

I've lost the immortal part of me in a vain attempt to heal
The tears that carve my face in scars tell what I was meant to be
(Meant to) be someone I am not, someone I have always been
Duality of existence as unique and useless creed

Cold, the weight of the world seems so strong (so strong)

I can sometimes fall away from me
And I can other times hide and disappear
'Cause I can sometimes turn away from me
And I can love and hate myself and run away from me

Bleeding dreams of self-affliction
Living in an endless hole where I fall away from me

In the darkest hour I can see the light
When the world around me fades from sight
Sanity, ignore the screams of agony from the other side
Reality, so artificial that it feels so wrong and makes me drown in tears

I can sometimes fall away from me
And I can other times hide and disappear
'Cause I can sometimes turn away from me
And I can love and hate myself and run away from me
Far away!
