about

It's cold working in a produce cooler at 5am in the winter. And you feel cold all day. I feel cold thinking about it.

lyrics

Standing in my house, staring out the window
It's a beautiful summer day, but inside I feel buried in snow
It feels icy and hard
It feels brittle, about to fall apart
It's the winter of my heart
and there's no sign of Spring
It gets colder every day it seems

I built these walls from ice to surround
and if they ever melt, maybe they'll drown me
they'll keep you out they'll keep you at bay
I made no door so here I will stay
because being alive feels like stealing
avoiding life is more appealing than staying in a world
that leaves you feeling cold

and I couldn't explain it so I drove away my friends
I gave them a reason to hate me again and again and again
I burned some bridges because they just wouldn't listen
even while I was screaming, "This is it!"
because staying here feels like stealing
avoiding life is more appealing than staying in a world
that leaves you feeling cold
Feeling old
"The world has had enough of you.
You should go."

you could say I'm moody but I think that's putting it far too lightly
this is little more than cruelty and all my solutions are so unsightly
Do I need to spell it out? Where I'm going I won't be found
So you can turn around now I'm leaving and I won't be helped

I didn't choose this, for once it's not myself I blame
Who would choose to bring on winter day after endless day?
There's a reason I feel colder every day in my chest
There's a reason I'm always angry and I can't find any rest
And you're the reason I am leaving
Because of you that's more appealing
Than staying in a world that leaves you feeling cold
Oh my soul
I have had enough
I think I'll go.
