It's a cold, cold snowy day
In this hell that you've given me
This world where you've imprisoned me -
Wrapped your ivy branches 'round me tight!

You wanna see what's in my soul, baby
You wanna take all my control, baby
And you won't leave nothin' left for me -
Won't leave nothin' left tonight!

Oh, I can't take it anymore
Gonna open that front door
And hack and climb my way
Out of your ivory tower

I can't see me anymore
I can't be me anymore
Because you've buried me in a snowbank
And I'm dyin'...

(quietly)
No, I don't want your snowy tower
And I don't want this life nomore
It's a cold, cold, cold, cold day
And I wanna go away!

(louder)
Out of your ivory tower
I'm gonna hack and climb
Out of your prison of roses
I'm gonna leave it all behind!

Yeah, it's a cold, cold, day
In hell, but I'm gonna do it
It's a cold, cold day
But you'll see, I will break through it...

You'll see, I will break through it.
