A Chill That You Can't Taint Lyrics

The atrocities of daylight

No dreams survive in these dirty streets

When lights get dimmer and days get shorter

I get derailed

Out in the cold

Battered and old

Caught up in life's tight stranglehold

Castaway on a desert island

I used to call my soul

Reality hits harder

When hopes are shining brighter

Succumbing to the weight of my impossible dreams

Deafening isolation

A self-imposed costraint

Suspended animation

A chill that you can't taint

Out in the cold

Battered and old

Caught up in life's tight stranglehold

Castaway on a desert island

I used to call my soul

I used to call myself

A surge of hungry eyes

I need a new disguise

You serve too many masters

No sycophants can break the mold

Castaway

I'm a castaway

This ain't what I envisioned

It's time for swift decisions

Living the nightmare ain't a fancy affair

Lost in the ether and I don't care

Whatever lurks out there

It counts that I'm still one step ahead of you
