lyrics

OUT OF THE COLD,
SAFE FROM THE STORM
TEMPTED BY SHELTER
SAFETY AND WARMTH
NO FEAR, NO PAIN
AND NOTHING LEFT FOR ME
TO ATTAIN

WHAT IS LIFE WITHOUT STRIFE?

FRUITS OF MY LABOR,
I REAP WHAT I'VE SOWN
CONVINCED THAT I'M SATED,
MY DREAMS ARE ON HOLD
NO PLAN, NO GOALS
AND NOWHERE LEFT FOR ME
TO GO
STILL I CAN'T HELP,
BUT REFLECT AND PONDER
LOOKS LIKE ABSENCE MAKES
THE HEART GROW FONDER
NO AIM, NO END
JUST AN ENDLESS AMOUNT OF TIME TO EXPEND

WHAT IS LIFE WITHOUT STRIFE?

AN UNVOICED SENSE OF REGRET
HOLLOW INSIDE
KNIGHT'S ARMOR
ANOTHER ME, UNMET
CANNOT HELP BUT WONDER

WHAT DID I DO
TO DESERVE THIS?
I SHOULD BE SATISFIED,
NOT DETERMINED
ALL MY HARD WORK
SHOULD GUARANTEE BLISS
BUT I CAN'T HELP BUT FEEL THAT SOMETHING'S AMISS

WHAT DID I DO
TO DESERVE THIS?
I SHOULD BE SATISFIED,
BUT SOMETHING'S AWRY
AS HUMAN, AS MAN,
I CANNOT DENY
EVEN BEASTS OF THE WILD
ARE FUELED BY STRIFE

AN UNVOICED SENSE OF REGRET
TEAR THIS SHELL ASUNDER
ANOTHER ME, IN IT CREPT
SET OFF INTO THE YONDER
