In the Cold Wind We Smile

by: Xcerts

We used to talk, we used to love
Each other but our connection died
We lay on beds, in a hospital without correct drugs
To make our souls touch again
I am a ghost, I am nowhere, I am doomed
Yes it’s hard to hear
But you swear it’s the truth
We used to talk, we used to love
Each other but our connection died
We lay on beds, in a hospital without correct drugs
To make our souls touch again
I am a ghost, I am nowhere, yeah I am doomed
Yes it’s hard to hear
But you swear it’s the truth
So I don’t agree
My friends, my hope, my love
They say that I’m above this
So don’t worry boy
Cos we are proud of you, yeah no matter what
Woah Woah
I’ll understand
What it takes to be a better friend and man
And i just can’t fall asleep
You are the drug I need
My history won’t let me go
Cos I’m exactly where I was three years ago
This car is wide, open and dive
Right into the heart of the beast
I bide my time as you devour my insides
I lost my guts when I was a boy
I am ill, I am lost, I am doomed
Yes it’s hard to hear
Cos I know it’s the truth
So I have to agree
My friends, my hope, my love
They say that I’m above this
So don’t worry boy
Cos we are proud of you, yeah no matter what
Woah Woah
I’ll understand
What it takes to be a better friend and man
Woah Woah
Pictures are scared
By loss and failure
I think I can’t perfect the art
And i just can’t fall asleep
You are the drug I need
My history won’t let me go
Cos I’m exactly where I was three years ago
I’m exactly where I was three years ago
Sing for, sing for the light we know
That exists in the bottom of your lost soul
You’ve got to dig it out and fight your demons too
I know it’s hard but it’s something you have to do
I’ll sleep well now
Knowing my body won’t ache for you
