Cold, Dark Winter

(álbum: Dreaming Is Sinking /// Waking Is Rising - 2017)

I take a breath and try to recollect
Who I am and where I've been
I don't recognize my own face
I don't even remember my name

What doesn't kill you makes you weaker
When you're hooked up to synthetic machines
Just so you can breathe

Am I sinking or just dreaming?

Trapped in a vessel going nowhere
I try to reach you, but no words escape
Could you blame me if I felt like giving up?
Tell me this cold, dark winter won't last forever

The cynic in me is screaming to pull the plug and leave
To decease must be better than purgatory
The cynic in me is telling you to leave
But I can't justify the end of life with no goodbye
It was just like a dream when I saw you at my bed
Felt your hand latching on, but no grip could be given back
I see her in my room crying tears for my endless sleep
I'd trade places, embrace it so you wouldn't face it alone

Because I am
Trapped in a vessel going nowhere
I try to reach you, but no words escape
Could you blame me if I felt like giving up?
Tell me this cold, dark winter won't last forever

Tell me this cold, dark winter won't last forever

Leave me to rot in this hospital
What a burden I must be
I don't blame you if you leave
The cynic in me is screaming to pull the plug and leave
I feel a hand reach into my dream pulling me from purgatory
