cold war

this house i'm livin in is so very cold, the snow will fall they say now, any day now. haven't heard your voice in so very long, it is an eerie, oceanic silence. and i'm banned from all the streets you roam, but you're lucky i just don't care. outside in the world they're buildin bombs, as if you'd ever care. i think of all the girls i've known, and why should i remember you. i think of the one that i loved the best, and i know i never loved you. you're tellin me just to fly away, as if i didn't know how. you're tellin me just to fly away now, with your distant, idiot eyes. as if you had a clue to me, as if i could not fly.
but i'll write you letters from over the seas, where i will be an eternal stranger. and you know i wanted you there, but baby life is never that real. i'll hate the day i forget your face, think i'll weep till i'm drown. the music of night will be so dull to me without that gentle instrument that is your sound. and you're tellin me just to fly away, i'm crowdin up your air. and this cold could be the death of me, but you're lucky i just don't care.
