  • Read the odds of this song
    Walk colder home, walk cold
    My press face on the ice lead
    A time is heaven when you call
    Painted lipstick on it
    Walk the truth up to me

    Border like all the others
    Just one of my sweaters
    Made of something better

    So throw a ball up into space
    Hold the phone up to its face

    Leave it outside in the rain
    A tired walk by it's head
    Never speak of me again Writer/s: BEN LITTLE, CHRISTOPHER ROBERT TALBOT, HAYDEN NORMAN THORPE, THOMAS WILLIAM FLEMING
