Sink, swim, the choices are that I've been to the bottom, and I ain't going back Sink, swim, the choice is yours I keep my head above water searching for something more Times (times are tough) but I've had enough (I'm) I'm through with giving up Times (times are tough) but I've had enough While you can't stop from- Sink, swim I refuse to go under weighed down by your lies, motherfucker I've invested too much into this thing that I love To turn my back and walk away You're just too fucking late Times (times are tough) but I've had enough (I'm) I'm through with giving up Times (times are tough) but I've had enough You can't stop from drowning Drowning in your fear You're nowhere to be found when risk is near You've been dragged to the bottom of your mind You're holding onto anything just trying to survive You're holding onto anything just trying to survive Times (times are tough) but I've had enough (I'm) I'm through with giving up Times (times are tough) but I've had enough While you can't stop from drowning

It's wonderful Everywhere, so white The river has frozen over Not a soul on the ice Only me, skating fast I'm speeding past trees, leavin' Little lines in the ice Cutting out little lines in the ice Splitting, splitting sound Silver heels spitting, spitting snow There's something moving under (under the ice) Moving under ice through water Trying to (it's me) get out of the cold water (it's me) Something (it's me), someone help them

I'm under the ice My whole life If you see me gently smiling baby You should know I'm just trying not to cry I see you skating by You look strong, you look full of life I gather strenght then change my mind My heart goes dark Then I fall behind I'm under the ice My whole life If you see me gently smiling baby You should know I'm just trying not to cry I'm under the ice My whole life If you see me gently smiling baby You should know I'm just trying not to cry We all get a chance at joy Did mine come and go? Every morning I quit smoking Every night I'm bumming a light I'm under the ice My whole life If you see me gently smiling baby You should know I'm just trying not to cry I'm under the ice How much longer do I have to wait For you to come and burn a hole through my soul? I want to skate on top with you But it's dark and it's cold and I'm scared And I'm still under the ice My whole life If you see me gently smiling baby You should know I'm just trying not to cry

Two, three, four! Been put to the test once again Time after time Time I can't rewind I can't reverse Look into the future, all I see is dirt, because Life's been unfair in my past I can't get past this feeling that my breath is getting short Well, I don't have much to live for My future is bleak And I know it just fine With every breath that I take I'm embracing my Big kiss goodnight I was born to die Embracing my big kiss goodnight Dying to survive Big kiss goodnight I was born to die Embracing my big kiss goodnight Dying to survive Been put to the test once again I won't bitch and cry, lose any sleep at night I'll be just fine With or without you in my Life's been unfair in my past I can't get past this feeling that my breath is getting short I don't have much to live for My future is bleak And I know it just fine With every breath that I take I'm embracing my Big kiss goodnight I was born to die Embracing my big kiss goodnight Dying to survive Big kiss goodnight I was born to die I was born to die I was born to die Good times turn to hard times But, baby girl, don't cry, this time is our time One chance to live We got to make it right One day we'll die Big kiss goodnight Motherfucker Oh! Born to die! My future is bleak And I know it just fine Bring it! Break it!

Reality unfolds before my eyes I've spent 21 years living in lies 21 years that I've paid For mistakes that I never made And I'm finding there's no hope for love Devil in my ear tell me what I want to hear He said this place is cold, better do as you're told Or the true chill, of the world will freeze your soul And I'm finding that devil ain't lying I need something to keep me warm Please tell me that you will I'm so cold and all alone True chill Reality unfolds what is true I've got no love for myself, I've got no love for you So pay no mind to the stories that you're told Life as you know it has become so cold You will never feel the warmth, like the warmth you've felt before You sucked the life out of me I've felt your true chill fucking ice queen So I'm going to freeze, and I'm going to burn Until God calls me home, take away my hurt To know a life of pain and strife Too many years spent under the ice I'm so alone Been living my life so cold and I will die cold and all alone
