Winter's Come to Call

Broken wings
Lying frozen in the dark
Poisoned by the wicked words
You spoke to me so carelessly
Sweet embrace turned bitter
By your sudden greed
Daring me to speak and shatter
All that we have come to be
Is this what's to come, dear seer?
Shed to me your light
Desperate words and vicious lies
Designed to cover up your pride

Do you see the fear in my eyes?
Has our winter come to call?

I shake the chains that bind me
I won't be broken down
This crimson cage is crumbling
To the ground
I feel a storm is gaining
Is this the end that's nearing?
Your craven eyes won't tame me
Anymore

Tell me now
Are you happy, are you proud
Of bleeding me through not too long forgotten
Scars of secret shame?
The angel of my dreams
Is the demon in my sheets
Testing me and taunting me
Forever in my memory

You play a dangerous game
Are you ready for the cold?

Just say goodnight
Dream that all is still alright
I won't be waiting in the morning

I'm done
The fire's burning
The damage done

Snow falling on the ashes
Bringing to me new life
Starlight surrounding
Keeping me alive

I stare into the void
I revel in the dark
With nothing more to give
This life is mine to live!
