---

Cold winter cuts - a heart that couldn't heal, destroyed by it's own stupidity

A frozen smile - cracks backing frigid lies

I shelter beneath a veil of happiness - a delicate facade

And snow falls as to bury what we had, everything we left behind

Although your loving eyes - have left my gaze forever

They've been captured in my sleep

Although this vacant heart - can't go on any longer

I feel your soft breath in my dreams

But it shall not be - I cannot shake these feelings

I can't renounce - this love for you is all I know

I am controlled by sorrow - my hope forever lost

Bested by my weakness - will the spring's warmth never come?

And the snow still heaping on this broken back

I am lost within its persistence

You took the meaning from this withered soul

I have no strength without your touch

And so it was - and can never be again

And so it was - and will never ever be again

Lost - this love for you is all I know.

Weakness - will the spring's warmth never come?

A little child crying - from the bunk below

I still love you - I can't cut that tie from my life

Love born in regret? Was our blight carved into stone?

The stone that lines my heart - I wish I never loved you

Cold sweat and eaten nails - I did this all for you

A broken heart - a clenched fist full of hair - I did this all for you

And any other embrace - will just turn into shit

In the shadow of our former love

I'd trade a bloody wrist - to live forever in those nights

But the deed hath still been done
