If I hold my breath a moment
And let the silence seep in
I could quiet the madness
That seeks my destruction
And I’ll go oh so slowly
You won’t even notice what’s missing
As I slip away with madness
The cold holds my bones
And grips tight around my throat
I can’t even tell if it’s my salvation
Or my death it desires
And which I hope for now
As I shut my eyes
Allow a tear free
It freezes on my cheek
From the cold of my skin
The cold in my heart
Like ice I melt away so slowly
Or perhaps I’ll shatter
You’ll cut yourself on the pieces
And you’ll know how I felt
