How long can you last
In this snowstorm of accusations
How many lies have you used
In answers to my questions

How many times have I picked you up on my back
When you wouldn't even consider holding my hand to help me up
How long have you depended on me
When I've had to fend for myself

These days are cold
I have no clothes that keep me warm
And no house to come home to
You stand there watching me freeze to death

How many fires have burnt out under your watch
Do you even feel the cold anymore
This cold snow, this cold stone
It's as cold as your heart

I'm slipping away from you
In this cold world
I'm going far away from you
Where you can't watch me die

I will show you I'm stronger
I will prove I deserve to live
This life is mine and I'm not gonna let you break me
I'm taking back my life and making it my own
another forgotten one from the books.
