I Burn Alone

Cold... I built this house with my own hands Stone by stone on frozen land But winter doesn't care what I have made It still takes It still takes I keep throwing timber on the flames But the fire doesn't know my name I burn I burn Like a fireplace that no one sees I burn I burn Giving light on my knees And the snow keeps falling The snow keeps falling This house was built for two But I'm the only one who never knew Never knew... Empty room... Fireplace... I see your ghost in every flame Every flicker speaks your name I reach my hands into the glow But it's cold God, it's cold I've been burning since you left There's nothing of me left I burn I burn Like a fireplace that no one sees I burn I burn Giving light on my knees And the snow keeps falling The snow keeps falling This house was built for two But I'm the only one I could let it die Let the ashes fly But I'd rather freeze Than forget your eyes I BURN I BURN I BURN I BURN LIKE A FIREPLACE IN THE STORM I BURN I BURN TRAGIC SINCE THE DAY I WAS BORN AND THE SNOW KEEPS FALLING THE ROOF IS GONE THIS HOUSE WAS BUILT FOR TWO BUT I BURN ALONE ...alone...
