As the moon lays its veil

Over the blanket of snow

The dark and ice-cold water

Swirling by deep below

I stare with absent eyes

Into foam so white

Water now in furious rage

I'm paralyzed by this sight



Waves storms as if in dance

Making a living bed

They climb and rise so high

Only to fall down dead

Chaos strikes my mind

A dreamlike battle inside

And though my conscience shivers

My body wants to fly



So fragile is it, the flame of life

That burns within us, so deep inside

It is so easy for me to fall

It is so easy to lose it all



So close now, so easy

I want to see, yet stay alive

Emotions frustrate me

Too scared to see what dwells behind



My twisted mind-cries

This weird emotion-I defy



Just a single step

And into the end I'll fall

Life is just a shadow

It's so easy to lose it all

I silently sigh and turn,

around and walk away

I've finally decided to live another day



So close now, so easy

I want to see, yet stay alive

Emotions frustrate me

Too scared to see what dwells behind
