Not everything outside will need a trigger warning
Much will exist and won't be stained by sadness creeping
And many places won't have you quickly spiralling
You'll just be there and it won't mean a thing
You will function instinctively and at times feel nothing at all
But then the cold will come, the cold will come again
Life goes on atrociously, oblivious to that hole in your soul
But then the cold will come, the cold will come again
The cold will come again
The cold will come again
Never left to begin with
The cold
And every joy won't necessarily be a betrayal
You'll have moments where all the pain will seem so distant
And it'll last minutes, then hours, then days as you are stuck there
But this dumb heart, it won't stop beating
You will function instinctively and at times feel nothing at all
But then the cold will come, the cold will come again
Life goes on atrociously, oblivious to that hole in your soul
But then the cold will come, the cold will come again
The cold will come again
The cold will come again
Never left to begin with
The cold
In the morning, at the movies
Doing boardgames, watching telly
On the subway, by the shorefront
Seeing puzzles on a store front
On a car ride, on a long walk
Familiar streets near an old block
Taking some pills when you feel sick
Flower patterns on bright fabric
While you make plans, while you're baking
When your phone suggests an old pic
A new season from a loved show
A release date that came too slow
When there's crying, when there's laughter
Should have been you instead of her
Every Sunday, every evening
Every month when it's the fifteenth
Not everything will make you ask why you're still breathing
But it will linger around
You will function instinctively and at times feel nothing at all
But then the cold will come, the cold will come again
Life goes on atrociously, oblivious to that hole in your soul
But then the cold will come, the cold will come again
The cold will come again
The cold will come again
Never left to begin with
The cold
The cold
The cold
The cold
