Ice-Sleep

lock it all away
in the deep-dark-pack-ice
lock it all away.
This is not the way forward.
You can't play on those terms.
The board isn't fair.
You'll only get burned.
in the deep-dark-pack-ice
lock it all away.
sleep with me.
there, in the cold.
We can smother this.
You can grow old.
in the deep-dark-pack-ice
and not want.
lock it all away.
you're afraid.
Sensible.
You're so sick of being sensible.
There's no stopping that juggernaut.
but hush, hush
in the deep-dark-pack-ice
lock it all away.
the thinning line between that place
and your sanity
is quickly fading away
so lock yourself in
lock it all away
lock it all away
the devil has no sway
in the deep-dark-pack-ice
lock it all away.
and your fury means nothing
in the dark.
