"Barefoot In Snow" lyrics

"Barefoot In Snow"

You tell me a secret, I'm telling no soul
All this pain in your pocket is heavy to hold
I wish you were patient enough with yourself
But it's dark in the hole
You're barefoot in snow

We worship the devil, we worship the gods
So it perfectly evens out to nothing at all
I spoke with you Wednesday, we spoke before noon
About how this old planet wasn't made for us two

I wish I was happy
I wish I was dripping with joy
It's so hard to be happy
It's so hard to be dripping with joy

I tell you my secret, I tell you the truth
I never had bright eyes, but had eyes on you
If I could be in a heavenly hue
Can you take out the blue?

Your arms are a blizzard
I step in the snow
Still feels like I'm dying
But just not so slow
Feels like I'm in some
Kind of control
And I can count to
One
Two
Three

I wish I was happy
But I forgot my words
I don't speak much lately
And I forgot to tell you maybe
A wish for sun is wishful thinking
Someone said a lot of nothing
I left my key inside your party
So you would call me back

I wish I was happy
I wish I was dripping with joy
It's so hard to be happy
It's so hard to be dripping with joy
I wish I was happy, I know
That we're barefoot in snow
It's so hard to be happy, I know
That we're barefoot in snow
