Flotsam & Jetsam - The Cold Lyrics






It all comes down to this
How to hold on to life I once had with you
An addiction like this
The supply slips away without warning
Don't know how to survive
I still need you to fill all the voids inside

You're the blood inside
You're the beat of my soul
You're the breath inside
You're the thought that I hold
You're the blood inside
You're the beat of my soul

How should I keep time from ticking away
Stop tomorrow from coming
How can I hold the craving at bay
So better off when I didn't know
Coming at me so fast I can't run
Years of minutes of seconds of time
Put inside all I am, all I have
Pay the toll to hear what's on my mind

Where do I go from here
The sun doesn't rise where I am
Spring never rises from fall
And the nightingale doesn't sing

Where do I go from here
There is no yellow brick road
No reference for my dreams
And no warmth to hide the cold

The cold
The cold
The cold
The cold

What is left for the time that I have
What is forward for looking to
Every path that I take is washed out
Every star is burnt out to follow
Passing by me so fast motion slow
Years of minutes of seconds of time
Generations learning what I know
Pay the toll to hear what's on my mind

Where do I go from here
The sun doesn't rise where I am
Spring never rises from fall
And the nightingale doesn't sing

Where do I go from here
There is no yellow brick road
No reference for my dreams
And no warmth to hide the cold

The cold
The cold
The cold
The cold

The cold
The cold
The cold
The cold

  1. H.... S....

    In my opinion this album is their best or one of their best it is just perfect, the production, the vocals (full of feelings and high ranged), the riffs the sound \m/

    This is a perfect metal song....

  5. J.... D....

    A very powerful band i like alot 🤘

  6. j.... m....

    This is just an incredible song and album. Flotsam and Jetsam will never get the credit they deserve. Dynamic musicians with probably one of the best vocalists in metal.

  7. Z.... A....

    I love F&J no matter what thay do, thay do it extremely goood.

  8. S.... E....

    I came cuz Jason Newsted was from this band, but I did not think I'd fall in love with their work

  9. S.... C....

    Eric Fuckn Amazing A.K.!!

  10. S.... C....

    This song kicks ass!! Thanks Flots! Rock on! ! Agree w/ Hisham Saade, Most underrated vocalist!

  11. m.... ....

    Get the new album! It will be hard to top this one but it is a really good album.

  12. C.... H....

    This song resonates with a lot of my own feelings

  13. s.... a....

    If you haven't picked up this cd, just do it! I can't get enough of it when I throw it on.

    s.... a....

    Haven't ever given them a try, today when I was bored I finally did and I fell in love with this record. The singer is amazing

    s.... a....

    I hadn't listened to these guys since the 90s, and decided to give this cd a spin. it was on my play list for months afterwards. Eric A.K. is also amazing live on vocals and sounds just like studio. Dude has airways had the pipes.

  14. J.... B....

    This entire album is so FUCKING AWESOME!!

    J.... B....

    Damn straight!

  15. H.... S....

    Eric A.K. is the most underrated vocalist

    H.... S....

    +Adam Youdell Still like Machine Head. They kinda lost me in the early 2000's though, but came back with "Through Ashes of Empires".

    H.... S....

    Amen...Very underrated!!!! No growling, imagine that. He actually uses his voice.

    H.... S....

    @Steve Schreiner He sings from the top of his lungs and from the bottom of his heart

    H.... S....

    Totally agreed

    H.... S....

    Agree. Best singer in metal.

  16. j.... m....

    I still dig Cuatro. It was at the end of the metal era, good bye the REAL Headbanger's Ball. Pretty much every track on that album rocks.

  17. m.... ....

    I loved these guys since Doomsday...Never stop rockin!!!!

  18. t.... c....

    Flotsam and Jetsam are one of the reasons why I started listening to heavy metal. No Place for Disgrace is one of the greatest albums I have ever heard. They are still thrash titans.

  19. s.... ....

    This band are amazing for 2 or 3 songs an album, the rest is basically dross. Very curious as to why...

    s.... ....

    So this band is good...

    s.... ....

    They do it on purpose. They don't want you to like every song on any particular album, only 2 or 3 and that's it and only you. All a part of their master plan.

  20. C.... H....

    Fucken sweet

    C.... H....

    That is cool! I remember those guys!

  21. l.... ....

    Maybe the 1% should go put in a cool and the gang tape and go dance yourself to HELL!.....;)

  22. K.... ....

    awesome album

  23. A.... B....

    very cool stuff !

  24. C.... ....

    is it me, or some1 else thinks too, that the parts like 4:11 reminds iron maiden???

    C.... ....

    Of course they love Maiden! Up The Irons!

  25. X.... X....

    What a great fucking band.

  26. j.... p....
