Mad Ice
It’s raining ice cold as hell
Won’t someone save me from this maddening spell?
Build the flame and let it spark
Who will save me from this freezing heart?
Some days are warm, I never feel the pain
Then the storm clouds come to make me small again
Why then? Why…
A shredded heart like shards of ice
Break the clouds and summon the moon
Slip and slide, grip and guide
The sky grows big and her moon smiles slight
Raining ice as cold as malice
Growing hearts as big as Alice
