Bitten by the wind on a hard hard day
And God I really want you to stay
Bitten by tears and a burning fear
That had smeared us both on the table

And there are too many people in this street
There are too many eyes to meet
So I hold your wrist and I feel you listless
Shaking on the edge of your seat

Oh hide me safe away I want to see myself
Painted an invisible gray.
Feed me to the years and I will make myself
Harmless as a drawn-on tear
Please don't hold me in your soul like a heavy stone

I am carrying my cold heart home.

Trapped by a breath and it hit my head
like a thousend bricks from the sky
And I saw you choke as the last bridge broke
And our fingers waved goodbye

There are too many clowns stumbling by
There are too many hand to untie
So we leave it there by the tin can chairs
And the pavement swallows our lives

Oh hide me safe away I want to see myself
Painted an invisible gray.
Feed me to the years and I will make myself
Harmless as a drawn-on tear
Please don't hold me in your soul like a heavy stone

I am carrying my cold heart home
I am carrying my cold heart home

Your face has followed me home
With unwanted grace I leave you lonely
We were never made a perfect piece to fit
We will remain unfinished puzzles as we seat

Oh hide me safe away I want to see myself
Painted an invisible gray.
Feed me to the years and I will make myself
Harmless as a drawn-on tear
Please dont hold me in your soul like a heavy stone

I am carrying my cold heart home
I am carrying my cold heart home
I am carrying my cold heart home
I am carrying my cold heart home
I am carrying my cold heart home
