lyrics

The sun has come up now,
but the chills have stuck around.
And even though I’m so goddamn cold
I’ve thrown out my winter clothes.
To hell with the elements.
I’d rather just get sick,
than spend another hour bundled up in this restrictive stuff.

I’ll tear my coat
to threadbare shreds
to let
my sheltered skin
draw a frigid breath.

Now that I’m exposed,
my skin adjusts to the cold.
And I’ll admit I’m scared to death.
Here’s to hoping it’s all been for the best.
If my skin cracks don’t worry just yet,
I’m just shedding off my diseased
shell in attempt to wrestle my way
back into the sun’s rays.

Are these goosebumps a warning sign,
an omen for the times?
If I cover myself again
will I be sucked right back in
to the gaping maw I called my home.
That warm embrace of wet skin
was an empty place.
I was comfortable.

I’ll tear my coat to threadbare shreds to let
My sheltered skin draw a frigid breath.

Now that I’m exposed,
my skin adjusts to the cold.
And I’ll admit I’m scared to death.
Here’s to hoping it’s all been for the best.
If my skin cracks don’t worry just yet,
I’m just shedding off my diseased
shell in attempt to wrestle my way
back into the sun’s rays.
