So Cold It´s Hard to Think

it's way too cold to think
i haven't slept a wink
the open windows were no help
the heater's on the blink

you think i'm lazy
you say i'm slow
but there's something
i want to know

the more i get, the less i feel
i never know, how it goes
the world is just a spinning wheel
with us too far afield
and no one's in control

i know what i must do
i need to copy you
and find the version of myself
that lets me follow through

you'll think i'm crazy
you'll say i'm soft
but you're not the one who's lost

the more i hear the less i feel
the more i see the less is real
you'll never know just how it goes
the world is like a spinning wheel
yet you still have a goal
to save your precious soul

the sacred blood of your saviour
won't be on my hands
the absolution that you need
you alone understand

it's much too late to run
we'll blame the winter sun
and stay indoors until such time
that summer has begun

they'll think we're stupid
they'll say we're dumb
but we will be the clever ones

the more we get the less we feel
the more we see the less is real
we'll never know how it goes
so close the shutters, turn the blinds
and help me soothe these tired eyes
just let me stay at home
