Song lyrics
Don't try to call, there are some bridges that burn 
Beyond recognition, beyond repair 
Don't say you've changed, there are some forces that turn 
Beyond recollection, beyond my stare 
When I feel the cold in the dark, I know you're there 

Long ago I was a woman in pain 
A woman in need, I ran to you 
Long ago I did not understand 
You were making me bleed, I ran to you 
When I feel the cold in the dark, I know what you do 

I will crawl through my past 
Over stones, blood and glass in the ruins 
Reaching under the fence 
As I try to make sense in the ruins 

I know your heart has held its own fear 
It's perfectly clear what they did to you 
But in my heart, it's the screaming I hear 
I won't let them come near since my love knew you 
When I feel the cold in the dark, I remember you 

I will crawl through my past 
Over stones, blood and glass in the ruins 
Reaching under the fence 
As I try to make sense in the ruins 

Night after night, I am carving it out 
I will carry it down to the waterside 
Night after night, I am hearing the sound 
Of wings that come beating, I will not hide 
When I feel the cold in the dark, I will know why 

I will crawl through my past 
Over stones, blood and glass in the ruins 
Reaching under the fence 
As I try to make sense in the ruins 

But if I am to heal, I must first learn to feel in the ruins 
I will crawl, I will crawl, I will crawl, crawl
