Cold And Ugly

Tool · Opiate [1992]

Safe



Underneath her skin and jewellery

Hidden in her words and eyes

There's a wall that's cold and ugly

And she's scared as hell



Trembling at the thought of feeling

Wide awake and keeping distance

Nothing seems to penetrate her

'Cause she's scared as hell



I am frightened too

I am frightened

Oh, oh, oh



Trembling at the thought of feeling

Wide awake and keeping distance

Nothing seems to penetrate her

'Cause she's scared as hell



I am frightened too

I am frightened



Wide awake and

Keeping distance from my soul

Wide awake and

Keeping distance from my soul



Safe



Underneath her skin and jewellery

Hidden in her words and eyes

There's a wall that's cold and ugly

And she's scared as hell



Trembling at the thought of feeling

Wide awake and keeping distance

Nothing seems to penetrate her

'Cause she's scared as hell



I am frightened too

I am frightened too

I am scared like you

I am frightened
