Please don't lie, don't lie to me
That you're not afraid, my love
I know you well enough to know
You can't be alone
If you were to roll
To roll down your window
You'd find the wind
The ice, the trees
That sway
Like skeletons outside
[Chorus]
But when the cold, the dark
And the silence come
It's like a sudden rush of water
Through your heart and lungs
Please don't fight
Don't fight with me
And fold your arms
Like it's the end
Can you smell
The sweetness of the soil
And snow in the wind?
So we're lost
We're lost out here
On the plains, my love
It's only wind and ice
And trees that wave from above
[Chorus]
When the cold, the dark
And the silence come
It's like a sudden rush of water
Through your heart and lungs
Don't lie
Don't cry
It's over
It's only the leaves
The trees
I'll never leave you alone
In this car
In the dark, with the air
Getting so much colder
It's so clear outside here
In the moon and winter air
[Chorus]
When the cold, the dark
And the silence come
It's like a sudden rush of water
It's like a sudden rush of water
It's like a sudden rush of water
Through your heart and lungs
The cold, the dark and the silence
The cold, the dark and the silence
The cold, the dark and the silence
The cold, the dark and the silence
The cold, the dark and the silence
The cold, the dark and the silence
