These Cold Hands

Can you wait until another day?

Can you give me more time to escape?

Let me whisper these words at your ear

Will you spare me now another year?

Your cold hands, reach my throat

No defense, let me go

These cold hands, empty eyes

Your desire, my demise

Unforeseeable, unpredictable ways

Your pointing finger, life decay

Your cold hands, reach my throat

No defense, let me go

These cold hands, empty eyes

Your desire, my demise

Your desire, my demise

These cold hands, down my throat

Could the end be that close

These cold hands

Empty eyes

Staring down

At me now

These cold hands

Pointing the stars, you

Cannot lie

While facing the void inside

(...)

I know well, one day the time will come

One last breath, one last look at the sun

Have you traced a path for me to endure?

Will you be my poison, then my cure?

Your cold hands, reach my throat

No defense, let me go

These cold hands, empty eyes

Your desire, my demise

Your cold hands, reach my throat

No defense, let me go

These cold hands, empty eyes

Your desire, my demise
