In a pretty sane reaction to a stonecold month of Mondays In a parking lot adjacent to the offramp for the freeway The moon was dancing in the clouds The wind was playing on the trees With a tube stuck through the window Its as easy as 1, 2, 3 With a tube stuck through the window He stuck by his decision to asphyxiate his fears On the coldest day of the year The mind keeps drifting backwards toward the formative years With nausea, not nostalgia the bells are ringing in the ears The temptation to homogenize The compulsion to submerge Beneath a quantity of beer On the coldest day of the year Depression and detention and a rock to let off tension Depression and detention and a rock to let off tension Depression and detention and a rock to let off tension Depression and detention and a rock to let off tension Carbon monoxide, carbon monoxide Pulse like a receding tide Cant you feel it slip away? Cant you feel it slip away? On the coldest day of the year On the coldest day of the year On the coldest day of the year On the coldest day of the year The earth which fed you now consumes you The earth which fed you now consumes you The earth which fed you now consumes you The earth which fed you now consumes you The earth which fed you now consumes you The earth which fed you now consumes you On the coldest day of the year On the coldest day of the year Carbon monoxide, carbon monoxide Pulse like a receding tide The coldest day of the year On the coldest day of the year Pulse like a receding tide The pulse was like a receding tide The coldest day of the year On the coldest day of the year No one remembers what day it was But everyone knows the trouble hed seen The surface details all checked out There was no way to know for sure or not Split second and the decision Couldve meant the wrong decision Couldve made it go the other way
