​in the cold

[Chorus: Mark Gerlai]
The sun is almost setting, and I’m out in the cold
Losing all the feeling in my fingers and my toes
But what I wouldn’t do
To quell the feelings that ensue
The icy grasp of winter, it chills me to the bone
It’s the only thing that soothes me, when I’m alone
But when the cold leaves, all my senses they return

[Post-Chorus: Mark Gerlai]
The icy grasp of winter (and I'm out in the cold)
The sun is almost setting (when I'm alone)
But what I wouldn't do (but what I wouldn't do)

[Verse: ghosthands]
In December
Moments always seemed to last
Frozen in the ice and snow
They’re now just burdens of the past
I think I’ll stay out here
For a month, or for a year
I know nothing’s coming back
Maybe I should disappear
But it’s all gone, and that’s okay
We’ll meet again another day
When we’re older, a little colder
I really wonder what you’d say
A long Canadian winter
Maybe that’s just what I need
Give me some time
I’ll have frozen veins so I can’t bleed

[Chorus: Mark Gerlai]
The sun is almost setting, and I’m out in the cold
Losing all the feeling in my fingers and my toes
But what I wouldn’t do
To quell the feelings that ensue
The icy grasp of winter, it chills me to the bone
It’s the only thing that soothes me, when I’m alone
But when the cold leaves, all my senses they return

[Outro: ghosthands]
The sun is under the horizon
And all around, the stars are barely shining
By now, you've made it to the spring
I'm sorry, I'm not ready to spread my wings
You might like the warmth
But I prefer the north
So you'll know where I'll be
‘Cause the cold's just fine with me
