lyrics

When the daylight hits you hard
And you feel the summer all over close
When the work is hard enough
But the sweat makes you comatose

When you've refused indulges
When you've refused the slow death promises
When you've seen how bad it can get
But you're not ready to give up yet

Icy water
Take a long pull
Icy water
So pure you don't even think about the blues

How come it can't be as simple as this
When you're down in the dumps in the dark
When you're there all you want is substance
Bring you up bring you down just don't leave you there

When you've given in to indulgences
When you've made some slow death promises
When you've reached how bad it can get
And you're just about ready to give up yet

There's icy water
Take a long drink
Icy water
So pure you don't even think about the blues

I will never understand the people
Who have no trouble each day
They can drink their eight cups easily
All you can do is stare

When you've fought back indulgences
When you've made and broken slow death promises
When you know how good it can get
And you're determined to reach it yet

Icy water
Take a long draft
Icy water
So pure you don't even think about the blues
Icy water
