Windchill
(专辑: The Confessions Of Mr. Modest - 2009)
I
was born in a
city, where the
wind chill could kill ya, and frostbite the
smile off your face when it grills ya. So naturally learned to make it out in the
cold, and carve emotion in the
ice blocks hidden in the
snow. And it shows, king of the
winter bitter and froze, with a
head full of blackouts breakin through the
ropes and I
choke, at every little punch I
tried too throw, but the
devil hovered over me tellin me where to go, GO HOME! And die where the
heart is, life has been a
series of goodbyes that I've been fighting too depart with, and hardships, shot down and buried in the
marshes, with nothing but a
love letter stapled too my carcass. Identify me, feel I'm too far gone. See the
look inside ya eyes when the
Blue's songs on so sing all of it, try to harmonize when I'm gone cause at this point, I'm barely holding on, come on. [Chorus] It's a
cold cold world we face, with miles of frozen road, that I
drove down on my way, I'm as cold, as, snow.. Falling, slowly to the
ground, all around you.. Black ice forming on the
tongue, this is just another part of life. Let it melt in the
sunshine, and freeze overnight. I
was built for the
blizzard, and lived with the
ice. I
smoothered every flame, that I
ever tried too ignite cause of comfort, wrapped up in a
blanket made of snow. Chippin off the
freezin condensation on my bones, and I
can feel it in the
mornin when it blows and it rifles through the
streets like a
bullet from the
cold. And I
know it, feel it on a
first name basis. And laugh at the
games that it plays with my patience, cause I've been lookin at the
world through a
glacier, and know what it's like to be hopelessly underrated, it's sick, spitting the
water under the
bridge, with a
shivering image of what a
fine life is. Cause I've been fishin at this lake since a
kid I
know exactly where to walk when the
ice gets thin. [Chorus] It's a
cold cold world we face, with miles of frozen road, that I
drove down on my way, I'm as cold, as, snow.. [Piano plays out]
