August Burns Red

The Frost

The cold comes with a sting, a sting across my hands

Cracking and breaking like the weight upon my chest

It took me years to figure out

It's what I needed, needed to survive

What I need to survive

My resolve will be revived

I discovered the cure for my misery

By spending time with the unforgiving

Something more, so much more

Graceful than anything, anything living

Alone with the wind is where I hide

As I find my place among the stars

This moment makes me feel alive

It's what I need to survive

Time stands still as my thoughts stop swimming

(Time stands still)

Time stands still as my thoughts stop swimming

(Time stands still)

My muscles may ache, my tendons may break

But tearing myself down to nothing

Has allowed me to become something more than this

Something greater…

This is where I may seem lost

But I promise you I'm more awake than ever

Awake than ever

I'm facing up towards the never ending expanse

And finding my place among the stars
