I'd be a stencil of a man I'd taste the sting of violent hands If it weren't for you If it weren't for you I'm sorry for calling your love "sickness" I needed your strength but mocked your thickness But I owe so much to you, owe so much to you Whatever makes you cold... Whatever makes you cold, freezes me Even when we grow old you'll speak to me Whatever makes you cold Freezes me, freezes, freezes me He straddles the equator not the fence Taught us to break our wrists, not our promises Not our promises, he always keeps his promises Because of him Lesser men have set their father's home ablaze And as the smoke billowed all those men became The boys they never got to be Never got to be Whatever makes you cold Whatever makes you cold. freeze says me Even when we grow old you'll speak to me Whatever makes you cold Freezes me, freezes me, freezes me Oh, I'm committed to you
