Oh, you feel so cold
But I know you’re better that way
You fear to do what you’re told
Underneath it all you plan a getaway
Somehow I found
The deep dark underground
I know that you’re cold
But to me you feel so warm
Like blankets in the snow
The ice formed down below
I walk to your beat…but don’t move
So, you bang on this love of mine
Like a drum I feel it in my bones
Will you hold my hand? Let me be your man?
On top of the world we plan a getaway
Somehow you found
The deep dark underground
I know that you’re cold
But to me you feel so warm
Like blankets in the snow
The ice formed down below
I walk to your beat…but don’t move
I don’t move
I don’t move
We won’t move
The wind / has been / a weary friend
To push / and harm / until it knows …we’re… dead
And I know …I know…
… that Somehow you found
The deep dark underground
I know that you’re cold
But to me you feel so warm

I was with Kelly when some of these songs were still young kids finding themselves. We workshopped them and played them live a few times. Great songwriter and one the prettiest voices in the country Jon Hynes
I've been playing drums/guitar/keys with this band since March of this year and it's been a pleasure. Beautifully crafted songs with meaning and depth through the loss of a loved one. Jon Hynes
Former bandmate (Trailer Camp) and all around inspiration. Victor is the lone driver on all his projects and absolutely nails every aspect of his recordings: structure, sonics, and all around beauty Jon Hynes
