lyrics

I am feeling the winter, I am feeling the cold. Sit near the fire as my story gets told. With each laugh and expression I'm breathing in gold. But if I die I'll never know what my legacy will holds.

It was fall of last year, when a man came to me from weary travels. A scar on his cheek, knees shaking weak, eyes blacked out from what he's seen. Cigarette smoke, alcohol: array of all the above. He speaks to me in a language that my tongue has never heard of.

This could possibly be his way of telling me he's lost everything. He's been dragged through the mud and shows hate in his blood. I'm feeling nervous, scared half to death. But in my heart I feel the warmth in his chest. The moon is bright and I'm shaking cold. This man looks like someone that I should know.

He looks mundane from the frigid air... or the chill from his bitter tears. I look closer to what's in front of me: A broken man drowning in the sea.

Body shaking, cold and soaking wet.
Knees covered in mud, hands in mourn and regret, and as he cried, I'll never forget those heartsick words that came from his breath
I've been running away,10 miles down an empty highway;
Not knowing what I'm looking for.
I'll keep searching.


"I've been running over icy mountains
Walking over burning glaciers
Treading under treacherous waters
And still I feel, feel like a coward"


But as I look to my swollen feet and well scraped knees I can see that man that came to me, bled to me, cried to me, is really me.
