Yeah

On your breast

I might lay my crowded head

In your light

I might bathe in cold burnt sweat

In your mouth

I might feel the serpent's kiss

In you womb

I might swim in fetal bliss



But in your heart

I'd freeze (x4)



In your eyes

I might be your saving grace

In your head

I might say it through your eyes

In your lungs

I might stare between you



But in your heart

I'd freeze (x4)



I would feed your heart

Take a vow of silence

And put your love out of business



But in your heart

I'd freeze (x4)

Cold Bitch

Soundgarden's "Cold Bitch" stands as a defining track from their 1991 debut album, Superunknown. Released during the height of grunge's dominance, the song exemplifies the band's signature blend of heavy, sludgy riffs and melodic, soaring vocals. It captures the raw energy and emotional intensity characteristic of the early 1990s Seattle sound, featuring a dynamic interplay between the band's heavy instrumentation and Chris Cornell's distinctive vocal delivery. As a staple of their discography, the recording remains a powerful representation of the genre's transition from raw punk influences to polished rock anthems.
