"Cold As It Gets" lyrics

"Cold As It Gets"
(originally by Patty Griffin)

To the end of the earth I search for your face
For the one who laid all of our beauty to waste
Threw our hope into hell and our children in the fire
I am the one who crawled through the wire
I am the one who crawled through the wire

There's a million sad stories by the side of the road
Strange how we all just got used to the blood
Millions of stories that'll never be told
Silent and froze in the mud
Silent and froze in the mud

I know a cold as cold as it gets
I know a darkness that's darker than coal
A wind that blows as cold as it gets
Blew out the light in my soul
Blew out the light in my soul

I dream in my sleep, I dream in my days
Of some sunny street not so far away
Where up in a window a curtain will sway
And you and I'll meet down below
And you and I'll meet down below

I know a cold as cold as it gets
I fight a war I may never see won
I live only to see you live to regret
Everything that you've done
Everything that you've done
Everything that you've done
