SCREAMING TREES

You said you needed space, I gave plenty of it
Turns out you meant the kind without me in it
Now I'm sitting here with frostbite on my feelings
And a freezer full of dinners made for two

The thermostat's at seventy but I'm still shivering
Your side of the bed hasn't been touched in weeks
I tried to warm you up but you were like an icicle 
Turns out love can't thaw your heart any more

I went looking for your heat
Found nothing but the chill
Your heart was winter
And winter always kills

Cold heart, cold shoulder, cold feet
You left me stranded in the snow
Cold heart, the ice queen on her throne
Should've seen it coming, should've known
You're cold-blooded, cold as stone
Cold heart, now I'm sleeping alone

You kissed me goodbye like it meant nothing
Left me frozen and numb from head to toe
It’s been a year but I’m still a block of ice
Hit me with a pick and I’ll shatter in one go

My friends say that I'm better off, that you were cruel
That loving you was like loving a blizzard
But I miss the cold comfort of your touch
Even if it didn’t warm me up too much

I went looking for your heat
Found nothing but the chill
Your heart was winter
And winter always kills

Cold heart, cold shoulder, cold feet
You left me stranded in the snow
Cold heart, the ice queen on her throne
Should've seen it coming, should've known
You're cold-blooded, cold as stone
Cold heart, now I'm sleeping alone
