Sitting at the edge
Fire lights flickering by my face
Eyes frozen shut
The coldness comes through my dangling foot
Moving my head
It s c r e a m s
I escape without you
Only you were supposed to be here-
In the light
It swept you u p
Into the light
Y o u went into the l i g h t
Seeking your heart
At the edge
Wailing
Into the darkness
Coldness stifles the pain
Cold over takes my pain
Rocking back n forth
The coldness numbs the pain
Bring the bottle out
It can’t be found
Coldness stifles the pain
