The Steam Rises
Steam Powered Giraffe
4:22The sunlight crashes through the pale sky And the whole old world’s still cold tonight The glow of the furnace that’s deep inside Can’t warm these old bones or bring ‘em to life It’s so cold (cold), cold How can I take it? (it’s so cold) The ice it tries to comfort me With a wind so chilled I’m left weary The burning lights from the past abstain They’ve flickered out and now are just remains It’s so cold (cold), cold How can I take it? (it’s so cold) It’s so cold (cold), cold How can I make it? (it’s so cold) The rust of ages is a cloak of mine It offers no rest from the icy divide My heart keeps ticking with the hands of time A frail old beat keeps me losing my mind (my mind) It’s so cold (cold), cold How can I take it? (it’s so cold) It’s so cold (cold), cold How can I make it? (it’s so cold) It’s so cold, cold Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo (Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo) It’s so cold, cold How can I make it?
