this is a cold, cold house
and I don't mean literally
I try to be strong
I'll be fine, I tell myself
and it's true in moments
but not yet fully
there's still worry, sadness
guilt and blame
and a little bit of anger
at myself
all this is mine to carry
that's just life, you say
we all have something
a statement that sounds so true
and so cold
when all I needed
was just a hint of warmth
