You're holding bits of styrofoam with your face painted on to your friends
You listen to them whine and moan about everything you can understand
Can I just say I don't feel alive
But darkness descends once more into my life
And suddenly we're all alone in silence so I take a step away
I look up to the falling snow as it makes its home upon my face
But I wouldn't want to ruin something I couldn't save
The gap will keep us safe, the gap will keep us safe
Step away, get me when I'm down
And suddenly I'm five years old and I'm just so cold I want to cry
I hold out for my gentleman who I've always been there
In hard times
But they're just not like that man of mine
Who visits me from time to time
My love
I treasure you
I hear that summer's coming back
Oh I stretch out my back and travel on
Though into gold it darkens me
It is pure and clean and all I want
I'll apologize to the ones I love
For leaving them when the sun comes up
Too bright
For me
Darkness descends
Oh well, I'm not well again
And once more darkness it descends
The ground is falling under me
And I can't find the means to get out of here


Convinced that I am going mad
Oh, I bury my head into His hands
So sure that I am losing faith
Oh, I clear a space in His Father's land
I deal with God far too young
Before you know it, your life has run out
