Cold Son Lyrics
It takes hours just to slate that thirst
Heavy heels and a daunting post rate
Bad idea for your blistered toast
To my will well you’re getting close
So say adios
The conjecture is reject the rose
Don’t stay high on a abuse
Table bottom gum holding it together
A Cold Son
I am
A Cold Son
It’s a revelry so silver quick
It gets solid when you’re old and hazy
Takes no leverage to make me click
To my will well you’re getting close
The tension goes
Defy conjecture and reject the rose
Don’t stay high on abuse
I feel like a nempho trapped in a cloister
A cold son
I am
A cold son
Victim of your rival pretensions know me
Face plant stumble ahead
Rival to the bitter pretensions know me
I am
Cold son






I have no clue on the lyrics, and I simply don't give a damn. Terrific song. I discovered this album a few weeks ago and found it great, so "jammy" without being indulgent... Genius!

Some corrections:
[slake] that thirst a daunting [pulse] rate blistered [toes] (as previously mentioned) to my [wheel well] you're getting close the tension [grows] a [reverie] so silver quick 2nd verse - [accept] the rose
The first verse makes me think about mallwalkers. 60-somethings powerwalking through the mall in their sweatsuits, checking their pulses.

i know exactly how table bottom gum holds everything together. you'll see. touch it when you're nervous.
to me
the song is an existential discussion about the physiology of exstacy, It's relationships,
and Desire. consequently, Fear.
Perhaps the eternal return of Desire and consumption are, in and of themselves, not somethings to be avoided.
From this vantage point, intensity is objectified and projected alongside the original Subjects into the future.
In any such projection, we recreate mirror images of ourselves - making real a world of assumption and illusion.

I agree with Universal, it sounds like the resistance of natural feeling and vulnerability in the moment, to force a lifeless facade in competition with your "rival pretensions". I think the "son" part of the title was chosen because it's like a kid resisting his parents' guidance, who know what's best for him but he still tries to be something he's not.

haha i think it's "blistered toes"...

I agree with Santiagof, great jam album. One of the best albums of the year. I think the song is about drug abuse though.

I agree with bS.O.S. To me this song is about drug abuse. It may not be, but it sure can fit the profile lyrically. "Sometimes it feels like the worlds filled with feathers/table bottom gum holding it together", whatever it may be about, it's not about the best times in life.

Sets up a great trilogy of tunes
