## Lyrics

### [Chorus: Kyle Pfeiffer]

I'm cold as ice

I paid the price, I don't care

There's more of me, there's more of you

We're everywhere

I gotta be the one to kill this flame

I will go insane living life in the wrong lane

### [Post-Chorus: Kyle Pfeiffer, **Kyle Pfeiffer & Roman James**]

I'm cold as ice

I paid the price, I don't care

There's more of me, there's more of you

Nothin' to lose

Cold as ice

### [Verse 1: Kyle Pfeiffer, **Kyle Pfeiffer & Roman James**]

There's a little pain in my heart for the way that we start

To criticize the art, though we shoot for the stars

So much more to see

So much more to believe

So much more than the simple mind you want me to be

It's like I chase the sun

Here I come, here I come

Better stay far away or I might come undone

So much more to see

So much more to believe

So much more than the simple mind you want me to be

### [Chorus: Kyle Pfieffer]

I'm cold as ice

I paid the price, I don't care

There's more of me, there's more of you

We're everywhere

I gotta be the one to kill this flame

I will go insane living life in the wrong lane

### [Post-Chorus: Kyle Pfeiffer, **Kyle Pfeiffer & Roman James**]

I'm cold as ice

I paid the price, I don't care

There's more of me

There's more of you

Nothin' to lose

Cold as ice

### [Verse 2: Kyle Pfeiffer, **Kyle Pfeifer & Roman James**]

It's like I'm under attack

I react and I snap

I will protect the knife

You know the one in my back

So much more to bleed

It's like bitter defeat

It can feel like the world is nothin' more than disease

I got a lot to lose, I got a lot to gain

I got the feelin' in my head that I'm about to reign

So much more to bleed

It's like bitter defeat

It can feel like the world is nothing more than disease

### I'm cold as ice

I paid the price

I don't care

There's more of me

There's more of you

We're everywhere

I gotta be the one to kill this flame

I will go insane living life in the wrong lane

I'm cold as ice

I paid the price, I don't care

There's more of me, there's more of you

Nothin' to lose

Cold as ice

### [Bridge: Roman James]

So much to take, so much to gain

No other way

The only drive that keeps our sanity

So much to take, so much to gain

No other way

The only drive that keeps our sanity

So much to take, so much to gain

No other way

The only drive that keeps our sanity!

### [Chorus: Kyle Pfeiffer, **Kyle Pfeiffer & Roman James**]

I'm cold as ice

I paid the price, I don't care

There's more of me, there's more of you

We're everywhere

I gotta be the one to kill this flame

I will go insane living life in the wrong lane

I'm cold as ice

I paid the price, I don't care

There's more of me, there's more of you

Nothin' to lose

Cold as ice
