lyrics

I know it's cold outside
I know it's freezing in your mind
If you ever need someone, I'll be there

I know you sat alone
When the summer had gone
Because winter never really was your season

When the riot goes down, we'll be inside

So you had a rough night
You sure put up one hell of a fight
If we go down, we'll go down swinging

It's much harder to breathe
When you're down on your knees
Because everything looks much worse from six feet under

When the riot goes down, we'll be inside

No ones gonna know the price we paid
They're all gonna see the way we lost control
