Underneath The Ice - Assemblage 23

I can feel the violence

Spill across the floor

My eyes have grown too clouded

To see it anymore

Fading into nothing

Turning into steam

Left in desperation

With nothing to redeem

Underneath the ice I find

A place to rest my weary mind

The cold deep water numbs my pain

Until I can face myself again

Waiting for redemption

That never seems to come

Hands reach beneath the surface

But I don’t know where from

I’m not ready to return yet

I just need a moment more

So I can try to remember

What it is I came here for

Underneath the ice I find

A place to rest my weary mind

The cold deep water numbs my pain

Until I can face myself again

I can feel the violence

Spill across the floor

My eyes have grown too clouded

To see it anymore

Sinking fast, too dark to see

The buzzing din envelopes me

Too late now, nowhere to go

I’m sinking in the undertow

Underneath the ice I find

A place to rest my weary mind

The cold deep water numbs my pain

Until I can face myself again
