Let's Be Subtle Lyrics

All my limits fell into the Arctic and froze
So, as long as you can stomach all this prose
I'll keep on talk, talk, talkin' in circles around
This love I lost and hate I found for myself
Oh, you know too well

And there's a right way
But it's in the trade
Of your basic life
For a higher way, and well
I know you'll find it in your way

'Cause she's got skin like snow
But she's twice as cold
There's just this hope growin' in my bones
That I see the girl grow old

Your tentacles have found their way
Round my poor hearts open airways
I said, well, I am lacking
But find traction in your
Face like gold, you know I'm told
It'll save my ass from getting old
The truth is screaming "When?"
As I am stumbling home again

And there's a right way
But it's in the trade
Of your basic life
For a higher way, and well
I know you'll find it in your way

'Cause she's got skin like snow
But she's twice as cold
There's just this hope growin' in my bones
That I see the girl grow old in the end

(And I believe you will come to me
It's not a question of when
As long as it will happen)

(I said I'm done, done, done
With waiting around for you)
