Cold Sword Songtext
von Sheer Mag

When I was a girl
I′d do my best to hide
We all had to run for cover
From my father and his drunken pride
He'd leave us alone
But never for too long
He′d pick up on my mother
And he'd tell us he'd be the only one

I could never learn to love
With someone he′s so abusive
It came back and went away
And left my heart with bruises

Today I got the news
That his heart gave out
I know I′ll never have another
But while father talk, it's his own house


Well I heard what they say
Family is not for choosing
It′s losing you when love abates
Or is it just an illusion
All I know is it's on me
′Cause he don't share the weight he′d leave
You can't decide who lives or dies
No you can't decide

It′s a cold, cold sore
It′s a closing door
On what could have been
With time on my side
It's a bright red sound
And try as I might to shut it all out
Now I see this life is all mine

He always let me know
How I let him down
It′s so painful to remember
But it's all the same ′cause he's not around

Well I heard what they say
Family is not for choosing
It′s losing you when love abates
Or is it just an illusion
All I know is it's on me
'Cause he don′t share the weight he′d leave
You can't decide who lives or dies
No you can′t decide


It's a cold, cold sore
It′s a closing door
On what could have been
With time on my side
It's a bright red sound
And try as I might to shut it all out
Now I see this life is all mine

It′s a cold, cold sore
It's a closing door
On what could have been
With time on my side
It's a bright red sound
And try as I might to shut it all out
Now I see this life is all mine
