Sleepless and frozen
Alone in my hole
So now I know
How strong I can be
My mind's a blade forged by the cold
The nights were truth
Telling me the things
That I should do to make them all just go away
Who is this person you have become
What is this blanket of despair you've wrapped yourself in, son
I can hear them chewing
From within
If I lay still enough
And hold my breath and listen
A constant reminder
Of what I've done
Walk on out the door
And slap the smile on my face
So no one knows this life I live within these walls
And what shall it be
An empty glass
Or do I set myself free
Never have I stood at this crossroads before
But my mind is tired and my heart is growing sore
Some see through the shroud I've put on
They sense I'm unbalanced and struggling to be strong
So I promised this oath
To believe in who I am
To let loose of the ghost
The past is not who I am
Focused on rising
And walking a path
That's loving and true
