[Verse 1]

The mirror cracks with quiet laughter

Mocking eyes that do not blink, blink

Blink, blink

Truth dissolves in moments after

Hope drips slowly down the sink, sink

Sink, sink


[Pre-Chorus]

The spine bends like a wilted question

The wounds are dressed in cold confession


[Chorus]

Cold to cold and nothing more

A painful truth, a truth I can't restore

Cold to cold, the skin meets surface

A quiet grief so raw, so worthless


[Verse 2]

The child in me is still out crying

In a room I locked and sealed, sealed

Sealed, sealed

The adult hands keep on complying

Ignoring wounds that nevеr ever healеd

Healed, healed


[Refrain]

I try to stand inside my frame

While a stranger calls me

Calls me by my name

Calls me by my name


[Bridge]

Why is the stranger

In the mirror wearing my skin?

My skin, my skin

I wanna know

I wanna know, do you see me?

Feels like the stranger doesn't need me

Yeah, the stranger doesn't need me

Every glance like a soft attack

Just like love that never loved back

Every glance like a soft attack

Just like love that never loved back


[Chorus]

Cold to cold and nothing more

Truth, a truth I can't restore

Cold to cold, the skin meets surface

A quiet grief so raw, so worthless

Cold to cold and nothing more

A painful truth, a truth I can't restore


[Outro]

Cold to cold

Cold to cold (Worthless)

Cold to cold

Cold to cold
