    A song about the unending loneliness of lost loves, dreams, and youthful days. All your love freezes up inside of you, and you can do nothing but hide it, let it build up and bleed out.

    Story Behind the Song
    This song came from someone's request that I write a song for them, and although it has nothing at all to do with them, in fact it's more autobiographical than anything else, it still works. Another friend was writing songs that night, and I was inspired to write something as well, so I did. And it became this. It was written, music, words, and all, in a little under 10 minutes. Recording took a little longer, due to the fact that every insturment and vocal was done by one person. Me.

    -Ben

    Lyrics
    Love Bleeds Cold

    December brought a memory to me
    Of childhood lost, of luminescent fantasy
    Remember all the wonder in the world
    Thought I’d never want to see

    When everything dropped deep into my soul
    A blur of fleeting hands, and I just let it fall
    Whatever built the palace of my dreams
    Has torn away my cornerstone

    And sorrow burns a candle in the night
    I see all good things in the dimmest of lights
    You know it never helps to turn the strike of a match
    Into a firefight

    You know it never helps to be alone
    To go wherever living lets you down
    When every love bleeds cold in hearts of stone
    You look around, where I can’t be found
    And take me home

    Evenings spent in silence take their toll
    Long days I fill with laughter, and come home so old
    No longer pretending that the turn of the tides
    Is just a story told by fools

    Powerless to slow the rushing wave
    That draws me out, and I can’t be saved
    And the time to change has just arrived
    A moment too late

    They say it couldn’t hurt to be alone
    To go wherever living lets you down
    When every love bleeds cold in hearts of stone
    You look around, where I can’t be found
    And let me go...
