Lyrics A Human Failing - Shai Hulud

A Human Failing

Open hearts always ache
Beset with pain
But alive
Spent hearts close
Closed hearts die
Preservation of warmth is a battle for a culture downcast
The callousness of frost tempts the weak and weary
A human failing lets its heart die
The frozen tears, unfeeling as stone
Of a mortal glacier, detached as an island
From crystallized hearts of unbroken ice
They wash the warmth away
Reborn in winter, numb to pain
Desperate souls invite death inside
We breath the bitter air of warm hearts turned cold
A human failing lets his heart die
A human failing lets her heart die
Hasten to the tundra
Prevailing sadness is swept across a cold lifeless plain
The most dismal season to choose winter as our destiny
Preferring chill to the pain
A human being flows the warmth of red blood
Reborn in winter, numb to pain
Desperate souls invite death inside
We breath the bitter air of warm hearts turned cold
We human failings
Born of winter, numb to pain
A desperate soul invited death inside
I breath bitter air, my warm heart turned cold
A human failing, I let my heart die
Will we bring our hearts back to life?
