The cold air cuts the tension
Like the dead leaves shed their leaves
And I can sense the apprehension
Blowing off your breath to your tiny knees
The dead hills they shake my bones
The dead hills they shake my bones
Like a broken tambourine
Today I'm thinking that I've got quite a lot
To thank you for
But it's just one sinking feeling
That sends my heart straight overboard
The blue waves they crush me down
The dark tides they drown me out
Before you save me on that shore
Rain drips from my thinning hair
Down my nose then through my teeth
And I wish that you were standing here
Watching the red pulse through our streets
They always drag me home
They always drag me home
Before I ever want to leave
So temperamental tried
And true just like a dream
I woke up from in a cold sweat
And you died on account of me
When we get the wish of a better view
Tell me who in the hell will see
Because these eyes they burn like hell
Yeah these eyes they burn like hell
