I used to suck up everybody's feelings
Like a straw
Their pain and stress became
My worries and my fears
And emotions and the colors filled my heart
And killed me slowly
My buried grief would wallow
My frustrations would grow
Until a faithful song would harshly slow
Everyday were fits
Good days were close friends shit
And when I needed someone to hold me close
A hand or hug to give me hope
Suddenly warmness fades to snow
It hurts to people please
So I put up my boundaries
I feel free
I can be there for the ones that I love
Without my soul starting to freeze
No steamy words to breathe
I'm full of love and loss
My circle starts to close
And only ones within it can haunt my ghost
I overflow with flaws
But I drink them down because
When my temperature starts to get low
And my heart is getting cold
I'll grow my roots within the snow
Sometimes I worry
Having to much love
Makes you a weaker one
Cause each day that I become more dull
Are the nights that I've slept the most
I'm sorry for those whom I've hurt
From being too concerned
That part of me has gone to bed
I'll only breathe thick air
Won't be involved or care
Deaden my nerves before myself
And if there's no hand to hold
I'll just find comfort in the snow
