You know I hate it-
Try as I might,
It seems useless-
A losing fight...

..to erase you from my thoughts
I need guidance - an emotional GPS
I'm hopelessly, tragically lost..

Pale - you numb me like snow
You're colder than the ice that used to sit in my soul
Frail - this must be sick with a cold
I think I see the devil, dear;
I thought you should know

And, as much as I hate it,
Try as  I might;
I can see it's useless-
A losing fight..

..letting go while holding on to Jack Frost
Lasts a lifetime and I need rest
This has all come at too high a cost..

Blame - neglect may be all that I know
Flaunt your fears; they make for a show
Creep - such a dreadful process must be slow
To find trophies in the scar tissue;
From the wounds, marvels may grow..

Still, I hate it-
Try as I might;
It's always been useless-
A losing fight..

..because you keep a place in my mind
And keep my chest filled with ice
Even after all this **** time..
