[Verse 1]
Yeah, the high road's a little high to take
I wanna walk a mile the easy way
Wanna take a page from your guiltless book
Wanna let myself off the hook today

[Pre-Chorus]
Let my conscience have a break

[Chorus]
I wish I could be cold like that
Then it wouldn't hurt so bad
I could be the train for a change
You could be the one tied to the track
Baby, wouldn't it be nice
Just to plow through life?
Fall in love, 'cause a crash, walk away without a scratch
And crush hearts like ice

[Post-Chorus]
I wish I could be cold like that
So cold like that

[Verse 2]
Yeah, you burn so hot 'til you get what you want
Guess you got what you wanted
Then your love gets to stop and the temperature drops
Like your heart was haunted
[Chorus]
I wish I could be cold like that
Then it wouldn't hurt so bad
I could be the train for a change
You could be the one tied to the track
Baby, wouldn't it be nice
Just to plow through life?
Fall in love, 'cause a crash, walk away without a scratch
And crush hearts like ice

[Post-Chorus]
I wish I could be cold like that
So cold like that
So cold like that

[Bridge]
I wish I could get off on a goodbye
Be the bad guy on the other side
I'm the chills
I'm the chills

[Chorus]
I wish I could be cold like that
So cold like that
I could be the train for a change
You could be the one tied to the track
Baby, wouldn't it be nice
Just to plow through life?
Fall in love, 'cause a crash, walk away without a scratch
And crush hearts like ice
[Post-Chorus]
I wish I could be cold like that
So cold like that
So cold like that
I wish I could be cold like that
So cold like that

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Girl, I wish I could be cold like that
Then it wouldn't hurt so bad
I could be the train for a change
You could be the one tied to the track
Baby, wouldn't it be nice
Just to plow through life?
Fall in love, 'cause a crash, walk away without a scratch
And crush hearts like ice

[Post-Chorus]
I wish I could be cold like that
So cold like that
