lyrics

the winter was everlasting

born into cold i become
frozen and numb to the bone
lost to the warmth of the sun
reaching zero and below

how do i deal with the pain
when all i feel is so cold
(how do i deal with the pain
when all i feel is so cold)

how do i deal with the pain
when all i feel is so cold
all that i want fades away

i learned to just shut down
i dissociate
and let my mind wander
to a warmer place
sometimes it gets so cold
i don’t feel a thing
the winter was everlasting

adolescence in the cold
wishing the end was near
i tried to soldier on
despite my depression and fear
but the winter storm raged on
for over fifteen fucking years

how do i deal with the pain
when all i feel is so cold
all that i want fades away

i cannot deal with the pain
when all i feel is so cold
all that i want fades away
or is unattainable

i learned to just shut down
i dissociate
and let my mind wander
to a warmer place
sometimes it gets so cold
i don’t feel a thing
the winter was everlasting

my hubris led to haste
i thought i could outrun the storm
yet winter has arrived
it has come for me

i will not yield to the biting cold
nor cower before the howling wind
i am not a slave to my old ways
i will become winter itself

i learned to just shut down
i dissociate
and let my mind wander
to a warmer place
sometimes it gets so cold
i don’t feel a thing
the winter was everlasting
