I sit here in darkness, light has gone
I'll wait here forever and yet see no dawn
You beckon me away but you cannot see
Only in the shadows can I truely be free
The world outside is freezing cold
Rivaled only by the iciness of my soul
All who have touched me have been burned
I warn them about me yet no one has learned
Warmth and light try to pierce this haze
Rekindle my heart and set my soul ablaze
Like a fool I choose to cast it all aside
Now to most I might as well have died
I long for release, and this is my way
My blood flows for all those I've made pay
Sin flows out and yet I am still unclean
So I cast myself away to a world unseen
Some say don't dwell in pain and the past
It hurts so much to breathe; I wish it were my last
I wish I could get better and finally move along
But I cannot stay where I do not belong
