lyrics

Your teeth are chattering from the cold
The demons you drank with have all gone home,
And the heat, the ones that survived
I would write it down but I can’t be bothered to try,
I’m losing hope I’m all alone,
And some are left but they’re chewing on bones,
The presence of indecision in the air,
I don’t want to act like I’m not scared,
I sat alone In chartered flights I never did
But now I confuse my left and right hand,
Look back at the life I’ve had,
And I smile because it’s never coming back,

Just like an angel of death or the sequel to humanity,
You’ve come back to life to rescue me,
The cold will save us from the heat,
And the devils that got out alive I hope you’re warming up our seats,

On the grassy plane,
At the edge of a field,
At the edge of summer and the snow doesn’t yield,
In your book corner,
With your bean bags,
Readings ways to survive a plane crash,

And I heard him say before I left,
I heard him say before I left,
I heard him say before I left,
The final part of hypothermia,
Is feeling like your body is on fire,
I was burning alive
Just like the coffee mug
In my eyesight,
Reading many things at the time,
And it’s all over your brown eyes,
I wanna to know how to stay alive,

I’ve never been the type to go into things unprepared,
But if you’ll be my Christmas lights,
Then I’ll be your Halloween scares,

And I know it’s not your fault,
I know it’s, no it’s not your fault,
I know it’s, I know it’s not your fault,
I know it’s not your fault,

On the grassy plane,
At the edge of a field,
At the edge of summer and the snow doesn’t yield,
In your book corner
With your bean bags
Reading ways to survive a plane crash,
In your brick house,
With your fire place,
With your hot cocoa,
And your magically normal way,
To keep the hot air in,
By a margin I will keep the cold air out,

There’s movies based off this discovery,
The feeling underneath and it covers me,
Nerves begin to fail,
Heart rate drops to 0 beats per minute,
Just like this song,

There’s movies based off this discovery,
The feeling underneath and it covers me,
I never said that we couldn’t last
I put your voicemails on blast,
The plastic warmed my heart

With your fire place,
And your warm air,
And your good food,
And the bomb scare,
And the engines that never seem to work,
And the feeling of turbulence I saw,

I saw bodies huddled in the wingshafts, Smothered by metal to try to get it out,
I saw bloodshot eyes as we stayed up at night,
Always knowing the frost wouldn’t give us respite,
I saw the hope drain from your eye,
I saw your stomach impaled by ice
I saw the stalagmites of my heart,
Break off and shatter into tiny parts,
And I saw humanity at its worst,
My last words were oh how the heat hurts, Oh how the heat hurts,
I saw men chew on snickers bars,
Rationed, but at that point they were hard,
More than the cold or the heat, the thing that killed us was our own humility

But I still don’t feel free,
And I’m singing out of key,
But I still don’t feel free,
No I still don’t,
And for the rain that turns to snow,
I wanna see it outside my car windows,
I wanna see you count down from ten,
When I left the house we were already dead
