All my limits fell into the Arctic and froze
So, as long as you can stomach all this prose
I'll keep on talk, talk, talkin' in circles around
This love I lost and hate I found for myself
Oh, you know too well
And there's a right way
But it's in the trade
Of your basic life
For a higher way, and well
I know you'll find it in your way
'Cause she's got skin like snow
But she's twice as cold
There's just this hope growin' in my bones
That I see the girl grow old
Your tentacles have found their way
Round my poor hearts open airways
I said, well, I am lacking
But find traction in your
Face like gold, you know I'm told
It'll save my ass from getting old
The truth is screaming "When?"
As I am stumbling home again
And there's a right way
But it's in the trade
Of your basic life
For a higher way, and well
I know you'll find it in your way
'Cause she's got skin like snow
But she's twice as cold
There's just this hope growin' in my bones
That I see the girl grow old in the end
(And I believe you will come to me
It's not a question of when
As long as it will happen)
(I said I'm done, done, done
With waiting around for you)
