Cold as Ice, Sweet as Pain

Frost on velvet drapes
A thousand shattered shapes
Poisoned wine and tears
Symphony of years
Your glass touch decree
Binding soul to thee

Frost biting at my skin
Let the shadows in

Oh, wrap me in the winter of your grace
I’m losing time within this hollow space
Your heart is stone, a sculpture of disdain
I’m anchored here, in love with the bane

Ink of midnight vow
Only here and now
Dancing on regret
Tragedy to get
Blade held to my soul
Make the shadow whole

A fragile, bleeding stain
Cold as ice, sweet as pain

All that I have left
Lost inside the maze...
Just let it freeze!

Hold me in your frozen, gentle light
Time is fading in the endless night
Heart of marble, carved in cold disdain
Bound forever to this sweet domain
Cold as ice, sweet as pain

Let the winter stay.
