It's cold where I come from
It's colder where I'm going
The blizzards from my past have frozen me
I've ceased to dream
Just leave me be in my
Eternal isolation
Cherish this non-existence
Never violate my being again
(Chorus)
But why can't I hear the past weep
For the things I've tried to forget…when it's all done and said
I've tried to throw away the key
But somebody always brings it back to me
I cannot see those colours now
My eyes have become impervious to light
The walls are closing in
I feel, but I cannot touch
This journey had to end
The man became a boy again
He ceased to struggle, he ceased to dream
He ceased to kick, he ceased to scream
Don't say it's beginning
Tell me it's ending
Is my past the future
Is my present the past
