Unbearable.
Unreal.
Unrelenting.
So cold, it burns.
A kind word, a wistful glance, a warm caress-
Too much to ask.
Strangled.
Starving.
Stillness.
I started a fire, is that enough?
It's hidden inside, and I'm burning up.
Take a look within-
Frozen, dark, and black.
Open wide, let me in,
I'll never let you down again.

Unbearable.
Unreal.
Unrelenting.
So cold, it burns.
A kind word, a wistful glance, a warm caress-
Too much to ask.
Strangled.
Starving.
Stillness.
I started a fire, is that enough?
It's hidden inside, and I'm burning up.
Take a look within-
Frozen, dark, and black.
Open wide, let me in,
I'll never let you down again.
