A song about the unending loneliness of lost loves, dreams, and youthful days. All your love freezes up inside of you, and you can do nothing but hide it, let it build up and bleed out. |

Story Behind the Song
This song came from someone's request that I write a song for them, and although it has nothing at all to do with them, in fact it's more autobiographical than anything else, it still works. Another friend was writing songs that night, and I was inspired to write something as well, so I did. And it became this. It was written, music, words, and all, in a little under 10 minutes. Recording took a little longer, due to the fact that every insturment and vocal was done by one person. Me.

Lyrics
Love Bleeds Cold
December brought a memory to me
Of childhood lost, of luminescent fantasy
Remember all the wonder in the world
Thought I’d never want to see
When everything dropped deep into my soul
A blur of fleeting hands, and I just let it fall
Whatever built the palace of my dreams
Has torn away my cornerstone
And sorrow burns a candle in the night
I see all good things in the dimmest of lights
You know it never helps to turn the strike of a match
Into a firefight
You know it never helps to be alone
To go wherever living lets you down
When every love bleeds cold in hearts of stone
You look around, where I can’t be found
And take me home
Evenings spent in silence take their toll
Long days I fill with laughter, and come home so old
No longer pretending that the turn of the tides
Is just a story told by fools
Powerless to slow the rushing wave
That draws me out, and I can’t be saved
And the time to change has just arrived
A moment too late
They say it couldn’t hurt to be alone
To go wherever living lets you down
When every love bleeds cold in hearts of stone
You look around, where I can’t be found
And let me go...
