Using Lyrics from Demons By the Imagine Dragons

When the days are cold

I shiver under a tank top and shorts.  The landscape is barren in the dead of winter.

And the cards all fold

It brings back memories.  Memories that I would rather forget.

And the saints we see

I can't see or feel anything.  The cold makes me too numb, but I know they are following me.

Are all made of gold

They think that we are flawed.  They think they are perfect.

When our dreams all fail

I've given up on ever finding good.  I'm the only one left.

And the ones we hail

They think they can "fix" me.  They think they can make me perfect like them.

Are the worst of all

They killed countless people like me.  Flawed.  Broken.

And the blood's run stale

My legs hurt, but it's only a faint feeling.  It's too cold for me to feel if I'm dying or not.

Still using Lyrics from Demons by the Imagine Dragons!

I want to hide the truth

I want them to believe me.  I know they won't, not after the trick I pulled.

I want to shelter you

I stumble along, braving the cold and ignoring my wounds.  I can't leave the others.

But with the beast inside

Not without the others.  I can't leave them here, they're the only reason I'm still here.

There's nowhere we can hide

They were the ones that hid me from the others like me.  They showed me how they were wrong.

Sorry it's kinda short, but I'm short on time, so I can't really write that much
