I'm travelling
my brothers
through rain
and stormy skies
That cannon-fire
bound from high
and the muzzle-flash
I despise
Anointed
and drenched
in the mud
I am entrenched
Nightmare
blow and bluster
Somnambulist
forever after
Soaked
in the blood
of the one I loved
Flee
to the north
where I feel
the ice on my breast
His wrath
upon my back
makes my willpower
collapse
I'll die
a lonely death
a mad
sort of pride
I'll die
I'll die
I'll die
I'll die
a lonely death
a mad
sort of pride
I'll die
I'll die
I'll die
I'll die
a lonely death
a mad
sort of pride
Nightmare
Nightmare
Nightmare
Nightmare
blow and bluster
Somnambulist
forever after
I'll die
I'll die
I'll die
I'll die
a lonely death
a mad
sort of pride
I'll die
I'll die
I'll die
I'll die
a lonely death
a mad
sort of pride

I'm trapped in here
Don't let me be
I just wanna be one of them
So much money wasted on me
I don't even know what I want to be
I'm freezing up it's 20 degrees
I'll die here
Where I'm not me
Don't let me stay this way
So much money wasted on me
I don't even know what I want to be
I'm freezing up it's 20 degrees

Tortured endlessly within my pinebox prison
Eyes sewn shut, scars obscure my vision
Wicked tormentor saps the lifeblood from my chest
Trapped for a lifetime, burdened without rest
The wall colliding with my head
Losing my sanity
I need help. Not to die.
Help. Not to die.
Help. Not to die.
I need help. Not to die.
Suffocating, drowning in my own filth
They're waiting until my scarlet blood has spilth
The hammer beats a tattoo over my head
I wish that I was already dead
Merciless captor, grant me this respite
Send me back my vision so that I may sleep tonight
Stomach turns to turmoil
My throat opens up
The bile flooding in
I need help. Not to die.
Help. Not to die.
Help. Not to die.
Help. Not to die.

Let the cold wind blow
All over my bones
Let the cold wind blow
Right into my soul
Let the cold wind blow
Right into my soul
Let the cold wind blow
All over my bones
Down at the crossroad
They buried my bones
Let the cold wind blow
Down onto your toes
Shallow grave
They left me there
Now the devil knows
And the devil may care
Let the cold wind blow
All over my bones
Let the cold wind blow right into my soul

I was walking
By the bank of the river
On a fine October afternoon
Blue sky and grey clouds
Obscuring the sun
It was about a week from Halloween
The river was rough
And the dead leaves crunched beneath my feet
The cold air
Nipped at my face
48 degrees
Looking at the river, I felt like
I could lose myself in it
I could just lose myself in it and be nothing else
Just water
Just water
Raging in that river
Water that would soon freeze
In December's cold days
And come back
to life in Spring's thaw
But I was human
Not water
Not the air
And I was
Walking by the bank of the river
On a fine October afternoon
