You ain’t seeing what I’m really feeling
Cause inside I’m burning up
But I’m burning in cold

A freezing bomb is exploding within me
Chilling me from inside every inch
Reacting beneath my very skin

Numbing cold seething through every bone
Penetrating through my entire self
Stinging all over I fall

Intense bitter vibrations echo through my skull
My eyes flicker and freeze in a cutting stare
Raw and frozen I lie paralysed

Almost a glacial existence
Hardly alive
And every inch rigid cold

"Some men see things as they are and say why? I dream things that never were and say why not?"
