A picture, on a flag, at the top of the pole
Eathquakes shatter the world beneath you
And you fall in a never-ending hole
There's cold on the air, frost on your breath
All around you, consuming your mind
Are the thoughts of your death
Ten thousand people stand alone, shivering
Scared and unaware of the sinking pit below their feet
The ground trembling
There's cold on the air, a sense of longing
You're alone, standing on two breaking pieces
Without any belonging
Letters never sent across our home
The strands of our hearts ratty and knotted
And we threw away the comb
There's cold on the air, dying soldiers and men
Broken guns but the apocalypse goes on
Ink dripping from the pen
Still never enough, we're far too gone
We're always shadowed in the night, with the moon
Waiting for the next dawn
There's cold on the air, a dying man's heart
As the world tumbles down in a fury of reign
You call it depression, I call it art
There's cold on the air, when the world lives dead in lacking care...
