When your all alone with your thoughts

When the only people you can talk to are in your head

When all but those still small voices say you're better off dead

When the river seems so clear and warm

And all your thoughts a jumbled swarm

When your feet freeze but your tears are hot

When you breath to say you're okay but you're not

When you disappear from earth

When you can't miss the hearth

When you break apart you never feel so whole

When your instincts try to take control

That's when you see you have to fight

That's when you get over your fright

That's when you see all the world is full of lies and you can't do a thing

That's when life has no alluring bling

But that is where you can find your drive

When you are frozen in time
