My hands are cold
my eyes unfocused
I reach for warmth
but everyone is fading
I know I have crossed
bridges that have burned
I know I'm a stranger
in a world which doesn't welcome

Well, I'm beat and battered and lost, but I see no shepherd
No beacon of light, no sacred shrine
No salvation, endless desolation
And every new hope is a fake resolution
Every exit is a diabolical delusion

I want to cry, but the tears won't come
They hide behind this mask I can't remove
I try to hold on, but the tether is slipping
It falls behind that border

I sit in the corner
and try to see my reflection
I listen to the silence
I only hear its echo
I see a shadow
of my own despair
It stares back at me
without remorse

Well, I'm weak and withering, I can't stop from shivering
Regrets being piled, the thread's being cut
I try to turn things right, but the lever is stuck
I long for the things I know I can never have
They fill this void and then they spit me out

My soul is crying, my fears are growing
The tears are mounting, my spine is frowning
I try to hold on, but the tether is slipping
It's gone, now I see it no more

But while you still know who I am
I believe there is one more chance
You don't know my plight, my affection's untold
But please help me find my own soul
