Cold
Andrew Albrecht
Abandoned, neglected
Left behind, alone
Emptiness fills the space
I thought was my home
No shelter in sight
So I build up new walls
But I long for the warmth
That I used to know
Temporary sanctuary
This isn't my home
Where do I go
Where is it safe
Can't be inside
These lifeless walls
I was burned but I learned
Not to get close
Was taught that that warmth
Was not for me to hold
Don't think I can handle
The risk that's involved
My worn out body
Is safer when cold
Temporary sanctuary
This isn't my home
Where do I go
Where is it safe
Can't be inside
These lifeless walls
Temporary sanctuary
Where is it safe
Where is my home
Don't wanna be cold
