Permafrost

PERMAFROST

Something deep inside of me.
Is calling, but what can it be?
Trapped behind these frozen walls.
Tortured as I see it all.

I try to torch it, but it never melts.
I hammer at it, but it never pelts...
me.

This sheet of ice holds me from the earth.
Before I lose my mind, I hope death takes me first.

Slowly freezing, nothing to eat.
The slowing of my own heartbeat.
Nowhere to run,  just wait for death.
Frigid cold, staring at my breath.

-heavier-
I see it all from behind the ice.
I've tried to break through once or twice.
No salvation from my frozen grave.
Paranoia fills my brain.

-normal-

I try to torch it, but it never melts.
I hammer at it, but it never pelts...
me.

This sheet of ice holds me from the earth.
Before I lose my mind, I hope death takes me first.

-faster and heavier-

Permafrost frozen in my brain!
Permafrost frozen in my brain!
Permafrost frozen in my brain!
Looks like I'm going fucking insane!

-solo-

(still heavy)
I try to torch it, but it never melts.
I hammer at it, but it never pelts...
ME!

This sheet of ice holds me from the earth.
Before I lose my mind, I hope death takes me first.

I try to torch it, but it never melts.
I hammer at it, but it never pelts...
MEEEEEE!

This sheet of ice holds me from the earth.
-fading-
Before I lose my mind...
Before I lose my mind...
Before I lose my mind...
