Cool As Hell

Written 1997

Tab

the clouds past sundown, all smoke and ice
caught in a dark blue paradise
how to describe them? it might suffice
to say they’re cool as hell..

I’ve never been much of a soldier,
what doesn’t kill me just makes me older,
but looking back now over my shoulder
it was cool as hell..
+++ it’s cool as hell, it’s just as well
+++ I’ve always loved you, can’t you tell?
+++ caught in a worn out witch’s spell,
+++ I was a prince once, I caught a glimpse once
+++ it was cool as hell..

the rooms I slept in as a child
and all the numbers I used to dial
they’ve run together, like lovers’ smiles
between the sunset and the darkness
+++ it’s cool as hell, it’s just as well
+++ I’ve always loved you, can’t you tell?
+++ caught in a worn out witch’s spell
+++ I was a prince once, I caught a glimpse once
+++ it was cool as hell..

above the ruckus, this perfect sky
maybe I’ll go there when I die,
I’d love to stay here behind your eyes
I’ll be the whisper when you sigh, that
+++ it’s cool as hell, it’s just as well
+++ I’ll always loved you, can’t you tell?
+++ caught in a worn out witch’s spell
+++ I was a prince once, I caught a glimpse once
+++ it was cool as hell..
