Lyrics Cold War Kids

Cold War Kids

Out of the Wilderness

The crown on my head is heavy on me

They wouldn't know it

Cos they don't wanna see

The skin on my face is turning bright pink

As I walk by the girl's choir whispering

The street that I walk welcomes my feet

With cryptic graffiti greetings to read

The smile on my mouth, it came dirt cheap

I bought it second hand

I will always walk tall

Taller than the clouds

When the rain starts to fall

I come out of the wilderness

To lay by the waterfall

The wires to my head

When I press play

Who's this new prophet

Has she got something to say?

The thoughts in my brain are backfiring

I'm a picture perfect passenger

I will always walk tall

I hold my loneliness up like a medicine ball

I come out of the wilderness to lay by the waterfall

Lighten my load

You expect the worst

You always get your way

These big buildings these little girls

Are giving me a little shade
