It's freezing inside,
I'm cold, shivering.
In a deep empty night
in a lengthy evening
of winter
of shallow words
of cold
this is me
I'm cold
Straying from
lingering desires
incorporating
empty pictures
at my worst
I'm cold, I'm alone
stark naked in
my heart
delivering
messages of
distance and ice
of cold
this is me
I'm cold
The grave
a welcome site
a hide-a-way
a place to be
Deceived and
deceiving
relentless
in hatred
of cold
This is me
I'm cold
Words surround
but not heard
they are
gestures
of despair
of loneliness
and emptiness
in a long winter
in a long chill
of cold
This is me
I'm cold
