"Outside Myself"

(k.d. lang/Ben Mink)

A thin ice 
Covers my soul 
My body's frozen and my heart is cold 
And still 
So much about me is raw 
I search for a place to unthaw 

Something in me 
Broods love into fear 
It veils my vision leaves my thought 
Unclear 
My eyes 
From blue turn to grey 
Hoping to mask what they say 

I've been outside myself for so long 
Every feeling I had is close to gone 
I've been outside myself for so long 

I have been 
In a storm of the sun 
Basking, senseless to what I've become 
A fool to worship just light 
When after all, it follows night 

I've been outside myself for so long 
Every feeling I had is close to gone 
I've been outside myself for so long 

I've been outside myself for so long 
Every feeling I had is close to gone
