Not Titled And Unfinished

I have an icy wound
The cold wards off the hurt
Numbs me to the pain

Mirrors of winter
Reflect back a stranger's face
Distorted shadows in a silver world of make-believe

I turn away from recognition's shame
My eyes search for a resting place in you
There's nothing left here for me to do
Can't make reality untrue

I despise my hindsight
My memories of who I used to be
 That the rumors of yesterday 
Could become the truth of me today

Bitterness wells up like rising rain
I lash out at this cruel history
History of disease of heart and twisted games of mind
Hard and frozen is devoid of feeling
Yet brittle as the sky fades to ash

I cannot change who I was
Cannot stop it from warping who I am
Cannot keep running from who I want to be
Afraid of the unknown reflection of some stranger
Maybe just as lost and alone



CHORUS
Ice will shatter like glass
Melt the hard from this morass
Wash away the past
In sweet rivers of you
 Please, hold me now to you
Hold me now to...
Hold me now to...you
