Cold Love by Tim Kasher Lyrics

It's too much - there's too much between us-
The years of bags we can't begin to unpack

I thought that we were different
We swore we'd never cave
To these suburban doldrums-
The zeitgeist of our age

And there's no more charity-
Yeah, we both stopped servicing-
But we're definitely missionary:
Our official position

Maybe we're getting older
Maybe our hearts are beating slower...
Or, maybe we got tired of the same old dessert
We grew up in a world of thirty-one flavors
Maybe we're just tired of this vanilla existence

Cold love is all that we know
Cold love, no words, no emotion
Cold love - don't look me in the eye
Cold love; clean up, kill the lights
Maybe you've gotten sick of it
Or, maybe I'm just inadequate
Or, maybe this is stupid - yeah
Maybe we're just chumps
Riding this horse and buggy of
Antiquated love. We don't know
Where it's taking us, but we don't
Know where we wanna go, so we
Hold on and hope for happiness
We hold on so we're not alone

The sheltered life of a couple
It's like living inside a bubble...
And, god forbid, Cupid ever finish
What he started. Instead, he left us
Stranded and broken-hearted
One more shot of Cupid's
Dart, this bubble could have popped
Instead-

Cold love is all that we know
Cold love, no warmth, no devotion
Cold love - it only takes a few minutes
Cold love; let me know when you're finished
