lyrics

I thought the falling snow might last forever
I thought I’d always laid here in this bed
I was made of tubes and wires
you were sleeping in a chair
Outside the snow erased it all, you can look but nothing’s there

You can cut it close, you can cut me open wide
You can cut me down, you can cut me up inside
You can cut away this flesh til you’ve had your fill
Cause baby, I’m hard to kill
Cause baby, I’m hard to kill

It all can change while standing in the kitchen
With the microwave still humming, phone in hand
When your body turns against you, your body’s on the line
They kept saying I was sick but I felt fine but I felt fine

They say the cure is worse than the disease
They say to take the devil that you know
They say that there’s no way we’d see it coming
They say there was a time before the snow

You can cut it close, you can cut me open wide
You can cut me down, you can cut me up inside
You can cut away this flesh til you’ve had your fill
Cause baby, I’m hard to kill
Cause baby, I’m hard to kill

I’m hard to kill, I’m hard to kill, I’m hard to kill
I’m hard to kill, I’m hard to kill, I’m hard to kill
I’m hard to kill, I’m hard to kill, I’m hard to kill
