Edwin McCain Lyrics

Album: Honor Among Thieves

Bitter Chill Lyrics

Sweet love is keeping a very close score

 She's cheated death more than one time

 The tears roll down her face and on to the floor

 The psychic's been reading her mind

 

 Women with secrets men with their rage

 The lines run deeper than words on the page

 Breeze through the window, it turns bitter chill

 Pretend we don't feel it, lie here real still

 

 Whispered in visions of new earth shine

 We volunteer to do nothing again

 The world falls around us all we can do is whine

 Living out the future of original sin

 

 Women with secrets men with their rage

 The lines run deeper than actors on the stage

 Breeze through the mountains turns bitter chill

 Pretend we don't feel it, lie here real still

 

 Well now follow me to the water

 Dive right through the film

 Swim in the madness, fulfill every whim

 Why worry about tomorrow that you'll never see

 Why talk about the children that will never be

 Give us this day our daily bread

 Forgive us our monstrosities

 No more stories of the Quick and the Dead

 The asphalt will burn with our liabilities
