stone cold

medusa glare at my heart tonight
turn it hard and turn it right
make me grim and make me cold
before the rest of my life unfolds

zeus strike down any hope remains
and sisters cut my heartstring pains
furies smite every untamed thought
leave nothing to the passing clock

for a stone cold heart moves not when blown
by the winds of fate from a past on loan
and a stone cold heart melts not when placed
in a chance encounter with that familiar face

and a stone cold heart hurts not when struck
by the thought of a future without your heart
and a stone cold heart might finally hardy be
when this cage of tears finally sets me free
