lyrics

Without reasonable doubt, the winter never goes without
It's a harder fight to win than the one you've been boxed in
And though no-one really knows, surely nothing only grows in vain.

'Cause it's silent where lives are at rest
It's a side effect of death
And the trials test your reflexes
Fill your lungs with breath.

Within reach of hands to hold the winter cannot seem so cold
It's a hard blow to begin then you grow a thicker skin
And though no-one works it out surely nothing just amounts to pain.

'Cause it's silent where lives are at rest
It's a side effect of death
And the trials test your reflexes
Fill your lungs with breath.

You should take a hammer
to both knees just to be sure
you would even feel the difference
if they couldn't find a cure
Before you point a crooked finger,
pull the trigger on your life
You should calculate the distance
That you've travelled from your mind.
