Winter's Lies

By megaprime81

Can you see/The snow is whipping and twirling/Getting in my eyes/Can't see you/Can't see anything/My feet are on fire/And my hands are in deep freeze/Can't see where I'm going/Can't see anything/Everything's turning white/I'm drifting in the snow/It's a desert as cold as Antarctica/I tear off my clothes/And fall to the ground/It envelopes me, freeze-burning my skin/Naked and alone,/I am no more/I thought the frost giants would protect me/How foolish a notion/I'm alone and perishing in frigid fire and chilling coals/White is the color of the skies/White is the ocean of dire fate/No more can I feel/For it's too late.

    I owe Peter Steele, in part; check out the lyrics for "Too Late: Frozen", which i used the idea of frost giants from. Also, listen carefully at the beginning; you'll hear a mistake, "Ha ha ha, you suck!" "Fuck you!". There's some other hidden stuff in some of Type O's work...
