Winter Coat Songtext
von Jessi Robertson

There′s a lot of fear in this old heart of mine
Of a friend, of a lover, of a sign
And she pains me when I step out of line

I won't entertain these thoughts by day
So at night they sneak outside and start to play
Come morning, I try to put them all away

I can′t live between fear and hope. Oh this world won't be controlled
It's time I shed my winter coat, peel off my gloves, clear my throat
Say, give me what you owe me before I go


There′s a hole in me that nothing can kill
Not religion, not the bottle, not a pill
But it′s mine to dry or drown as I will

I'm afraid of what you′ll see inside my head
All the wretched ghosts I raised up from the dead
So I show you what I think you want instead

I can't live between fear and hope. Oh this world won′t be controlled
It's time I shed my winter coat, peel off my gloves, clear my throat
Say, give me what you owe me before I go

I can′t live between fear and hope
I can't live between fear and hope
Say, give me what you owe me
