Cold Drinks

Yeah, oh yeah, mmh
These dowdy jokes are creeping up my mind
You're not the one who's staying up at night
This ain't how it's meant to go
Shooting like a crossbow
You brought a knife to my throat, but I don't really show

(Ropes) On my wrist, intertwined
(I don't know) How do you greet, when all you ever say is goodbye?
You're pretending not to see it
You have me on the highline
Life's hard enough when you're living under a harsh light

I wish you could feel what you say
But I know you don't feel my pain
It lingers around
And it won't fade out
And you know damn well
I just keep sippin' up cold drinks
Then snap back in when the ice hits
And I feel too much
But enough's enough
You know I can't take it

Counting the stars just to pass time
You know your words cut through like a knife
And I wish I could tell you everything
But would it be enough to change your mind?

It always goes nowhere
Negligence at it's finest
Tell me it's all in my head
A good paradigm, once in a lifetime

I wish you could feel what you say
But I know you don't feel my pain
It lingers around
And it won't fade out
And you know damn well
I just keep sippin' up cold drinks
Then snap back in when the ice hits
And I feel too much
But enough's enough
You know I can't take it

You know I can't take it
You don't feel my pain
You know I can't take it
You know, you know I can't stay
