Patty Griffin – Cold As It Gets lyrics
To the end of the Earth, I'll search for your face
For the one who laid all of our beauty to waste
Threw our hope into Hell and our children into the fire
I am the one who crawled through the wire
I am the one who crawled through the wire

There's a million sad stories on the side of the road
Strange how we all just got used to the blood
Millions of stories that'll never be told
Silent and froze in the mud
Silent and froze in the mud

I know a cold as cold as it gets
I know a darkness that's darker than cold
A wind that blows as cold as it gets
Blew out the light of my soul
Blew out the light of my soul

I dream in my sleep, I dream in my days
Of some sunny street not so far away
Where up in a window a curtain will sway
And you and I'll meet down below
You and I'll meet down below

I know a cold as cold as it gets
I fight a war, I may never see one
I live only to see you live to regret
Everything that you done
Everything that you done
Everything that you done

    I think its about a confederate solider from the Civil War. "There is a million sad stories on the side of the road...million of sad stories froze in the mud" refers to dead soldiers frozen on the road, their lives lost. The soldier will never be the same again, lost in the tragedy of the war, never to see his love again. He "lives only to see you regret everything that youve done" is reference to Lincoln and the desire to see him regret the war he brought upon the South.
