Fear Runs Cold

Verse 1:

I lit the fuse with my reckless pride

Smiled while the world slid to the side

Now silence screams inside my brain

The blood streams in the rain

Pre-Chorus:

I played god with a twisted smile

Now I choke on the wrath all the while

Chorus:

Fear runs cold — through my fractured bones

Demons feast on what I’ve sown

Trapped in a mirror — truth unfolds

The price was high, and now I’m sold

Fear runs cold — beneath my skin

This nightmare’s mine, and I let it grin

Verse 2:

They warned me not to cross that line

But I carved it deep — said “It’s all fine”

Now shadows claw the walls I built

Drenched in regret, drowning in guilt

Pre-Chorus:

I screamed loud, now I whisper low

Can't rewind what I didn’t know

Chorus:

Fear runs cold — through fractured bones

My demons feast on what I’ve sown

Trapped in a mirror — truth unfolds

The price was high, and now I’m sold

Fear runs cold — beneath the skin

This nightmare’s mine, and I let it grin

Bridge:

I’m the architect of dismay

No hope, no light, just disarray

Every breath slowly collapses

Barb-wired to my past, time elapses

Breakdown (optional growl):

Cold… I feel

Sharp and surreal

My fate is sealed

This pain is real

Final Chorus:

Fear runs cold — it never sleeps

It haunts the hole that secrets keep

Can’t run, can’t fight, can’t pretend

I’m the beginning... and the end

Fear runs cold — the truth is clear

It’s not the world — it’s me I fear
