Silent Winter

Cold sky above me
No God, no mercy
No fire inside me
I walk in silence

I learned to carry darkness
Like a weapon in my chest
No one sees the burden
Only that I never rest

I waited for redemption
But the light betrayed my hand
So I made a vow in winter
I'll survive without the flame

Shadows tried to break me
Still I did not fall
Pain became my echo
I learned to feel it all

Cold as the silence
Deep in my veins
Love was a ghost
Calling my name
I waited forever
Lost in the light
Winter inside me
Stole the light

I gave my faith to fire
But it turned its back on me
I buried old desire
Now my heart: I'm free

Hope became a hunger
That no one ever fed
So I carve my truth in darkness
And I kill the few I bless

Shadows try to break me
Still I stay alive
Loyal to the pain
It taught me to survive

Cold as the silence
Deep in my veins
Love was a ghost
Calling my name
I waited forever
Lost in the light
Winter inside me
Stole the light

No more lies inside me
No more hollow dreams
If love was made to save me
Why did it make me bleed?

Call me what you want
I stand unafraid
I feel more truth in the darkness
Than in the lies that betrayed me

Cold as the silence
Deep in my veins
Love was a ghost
Calling my name
I waited forever
Lost in the light
Winter inside me
Stole the light

Nothing to follow
Nothing to feel
Frozen forever
But still I am real

I'm not broken
I choose to go
I walk in winter
I stay in control
