Run Cold

       RUN, COLD


you were tryin’,
   and - you were flyin’.
but fate proved,
   you’d never be right.

was it the season,
   made you - lose your reason.
your head and your heart,
   lose the fight.

how many more times
will it take for you to see.
that you should simply live,
and your heart should be . . .
run, cold.
run, cold.

late at night,
   when you - fell the fright.
stay out of the games,
   your head plays.

stare in wonder,
    as your - heart goes under.
and remember nothing
   golden ever stays.

how much more pain,
until finally you just see.
that what you want and need,
just will never agree. . .
run, cold.
run, cold.

run, cold.
you must make it
run, cold.
it’ll still keep beating
as it runs cold.
you don't need love
run, cold.
