A young boy dreams

Of a warm summer's night

As he sees the snowflakes falling down

He never felt the face of humankind

Just the cold deep thoughts

Of his own mind



He hardens his heart

To the fears of the outside

After all they blew the cold air in

Their acts of degradation

Are frozen one by one

Suspended in time and all but put aside



I am the face of your fears of a thousand years

Look at the hate in my eyes I have magnified

Out of the ashes I salvage my sanity

Scarred from the inside from now

Until eternity



I reach out to search for the safety of strangers

Their ignorance will help me to my throne

I've built up these walls in desperate defense

They segregate my world opens my soul to the call
