Northern Blood

The walls she built around her

There's a million reasons why

Everyone who tries to love her

Could never get inside

When my mama tried to text her

She stopped waiting for replies

I thought if I stayed beside her

I can melt away the ice

She always felt familiar

'Cause I grew up in the snow

So when she made me shiver

It reminded me of home

I thought I loved the winter

And the aching in my bones

But even for my northern blood

She's still cold

Thought we'd change with the seasons

Compromise and learn to bend

Four months in, she said she's leaving

And the frost set in again

She always felt familiar

'Cause I grew up in the snow

So when she made me shiver

It reminded me of home

I thought I loved the winter

And the aching in my bones

But even for my northern blood

She's still cold

And I know how to light a fire

Hunker down and wait the long nights out

And I know you ain't gonna change

No one's ever gonna melt you down

She always felt familiar

'Cause I grew up in the snow

So when she made me shiver

It reminded me of home

I thought I loved the winter

And the aching in my bones

But even for my northern blood

She's still cold

Even for my northern blood

She's still cold
