So that ice will surely grow

Over weak and brittle bones

All the guilt for all your sins

Oh and as that wheel spins

Oh the world still deceives you as it turns

Oh but it has no weight on the movements of my mind

D A

D A
And oh the death will let you down
F#m
'Cause your curse

Will go on the same
