Cold

the love I hold inside awaits
held back beyond these icy gates

and he stares into the space
this will never fall in place

(...I could never be...)
you wanted me to stay inside the world you locked away
(the one you've tried to see)
but I won't hide from what could be
the future that was made for me

(...I don't want to be...)
I held your hand to say we had to part this time today
(anyone but me)
but now I have no one to hold
this shell I've made has left me cold
(and he stares into the space)

(this will never fall in place)

you wanted me to stay inside the world you locked away
but I won't hide from what could be
the future that was made for me

deep inside it's cold
deep inside it's old

I need you to agree this time it isn't me

(...I could never be...)
you wanted me to stay inside the world you locked away
(the one you've tried to see)
but I won't hide from what could be
the future that was made for me

(...I don't want to be...)
I held your hand to say we had to part this time today
(anyone but me)
but now I have no one to hold
this shell I've made has left me cold
(and he stares into the space)

(this will never fall in place)
