Though you'd like to keep it closed and stable
Cold but never cold enough inside
Longing for a touch, it's elemental
The game is underway, the stakes are high
Energies exchanging, breath and blood borne
Still you'd like to think that you could choose
To measure out the effort in your favor
But you can't take more than you're prepared to lose
You stand on the edge of destruction
You move, so sure that you're good for the win
You hope that it all will even out
You should know that it does
Because entropy wins in the end
You wear each other down to strike the balance
'Til the cold should be enough to stop your heart
You think you might get out and cut your losses
But you'll only find yourself back at the start
Where you stand on the edge of destruction
You move, so sure that you're good for the win
You hope that it all won't come to nothing
But you know that it does
Because entropy wins in the end
