lyrics

I'll be in
The darkest places
In the back side of my head
In concentrated spaces
Wishing I was dead
Like nails stuck on a chalkboard
It hurts more than you'd guess
This might more than I can handle
I'm not as strong as I profess

Like origami sculptures
We fold when we should break
Stuck here in the past year
Is more than I can take
Complementary roses
Sit around on Christmas day
Yeah I loved you through the winter
And I'll love you to my grave

You'll find me in the snow
Trying to ice my broken heart
To save it from the wolves
And the creatures of the dark
I'll be sleeping in the ice here
What's the point if I can't talk
To the girl I fell in love with
Who holds my broken parts

Denial is a word that we should never breath
But it sneaks right through our lungs
So concentrate and expedite
The thoughts that keep you up at night
Sleep through completion
Three two one

Curiosity might kill but he's a clever one
Yeah he's still got five more lives
What he doesn't know
Is that it starts to take its toll
And it eats you out
From the inside

Yeah life's just more confusing than I thought it'd be
It's like eating Alphabet Soup
All the letters float around
Different consonants and vowels
Spelling things
I though I knew

Oh but one thing that I know is I can't take much more
The snow looks warmer by the day
So I'll make a bed
Lay down my head
And get some final rest
Don't wake me up
I know I'm safe
