The Warmth by Incubus

I'd like to close my eyes, go numb But there's a cold wind coming from The top of the highest high rise today It's not a breeze 'cuz it blows hard Yes and it wants me to discard The humanity I know, watched the warmth blow away So don't let the world bring you down Not everyone here is that fucked up and cold Remember why you came and while you're alive Experience the warmth before you grow old So do you think I should adhere To that pressing new frontier And leave in my wake, a trail of fear Should I hold my head up high? And throw a wrench and spokes by I'm leaving the air behind me clear So don't let the world bring you down Not everyone here is that fucked up and cold Remember why you came and while you're alive Experience the warmth before you grow, before you grow old Where did it go? I think this Warmth has separated itself from my body permanently. I have not had the Warmth in many, many years....and I do not believe it is mine to ever feel again. I think Brian was right when he said what he did to me, about this Warmth...it's no longer mine to have. And when I actually let that thought sink into my brain, it truly, really, makes me want to lay down on the ground and pull the grass up over me till it reaches my head to cover. And of all the things in the world, I never dreamt this would be the one thing I will die without. The only thing I've ever wanted in my whole life. And it's become the hardest thing to ask for. The hardest thing to search for. And the hardest thing to admit. Because unlike the lyric..everyone really is fucked up and cold. Everyone.
