Verse 1

Am i still really here even though I hate this weather

and with each passing year i swear it's my last winter

but i'm still living here with wet hands stuck in the freezer

i've got a choice and either way it's gonna sting

Chorus :

goddamn it's cold (i haven't seen the sun in weeks)

and I hate this weather

co-oo-oold

like hell it's cold (the gray is creeping onto me)

so let's stick together

co-oo-oold

Verse 2

it used to be different here

my friends they all lived so close

but when the first frost appeared they flew west before the lake froze

now I'm, still dying here with my tongue against the flagpole

i'll be numb soon but i'll save face waiting 'til spring

Chorus :

will i hold on until the snow turns to raa-aa-ain

can i hold on until i see you aga-aa-ain

Verse 3

played like verser 1):

the warnings were clear

nothing grows in the tundra

now i've been frozen for years

and still begging for the summer to get me out of here

but i can't wait any longer

this town can keep all of the flesh i leave behind

Chorus :

goddamn it's cold

i think the sun has gone to sleep

and i hate this weather

cold

aw fuck it's cold

the gray is taking over me

so goodbye forever

cold

Chorus :

now i'm told that the crew is deicing my plane

so just hold on i'm coming to see you again
