What’s the opposite of a warm embrace?
They don’t ever say your name, or look you in the face
But leave you out to dangle in a swirl of disgrace
And bad blood and bitter regret
Like a blue nova, all around your head
They say a chilly wind is blowing down now
And the coldest frost in 40 years gonna cover up the ground
The sun is sinking sideways, and low across the town
There’s a black dog that won’t leave my side
And a blue nova all around my head
You gotta get up and set yourself free
When everywhere you look you see
A blue nova rollin’ round your head
I’m getting pretty tired of painting the town
Goin’ out watering my sorrows with all the new friends I’ve found
I let the house fall in like I had someone else to be
But I had to start over again
With a blue nova all around my head
All this time I spent
Back in my old skin
There’s been a blue nova rollin’ round my head
It’s a blue nova
Rollin’ round my head
