Colder

My hearts drowning in the tears I cried for you
And my hearts sinking
With every single thing you do
And now I’m trying
To see the light in letting go
But now I’m failing
I can’t escape

From these shackles
That bound me to you
And there’s no seeing
The new

Now I am blinded from the way to the surface
It stretches above me
And yet I’m clueless
So maybe I’ll just sink
Until it’s unbearable
And I am no more
Because of you
I grow colder

My hearts breaking, under the pressure you applied
And my hearts shrinking
It’s like no love is left inside
You know you’ve drained me
Of all that I could be
So now I’m failing
I can’t escape

From these shackles
That bound me to you
And there’s no seeing
The new

Now I am blinded from the way to the surface
It stretches above me
And yet I’m clueless
So maybe I’ll just sink
Until it’s unbearable
And I am no more
Because of you
I grow colder

And colder and colder than ice
I am no more
No more
But maybe I will rise above this forever that has been crushed in your hands
So maybe I’ll break free
With the little strength in me

Now I’m rewarded with my very own sight
And I can see the way
I’m supposed to go
So maybe I’ll make it
Until I’m on my own
And I am so free
Because of this love
I grew stronger

I know I can make it through
