Manic Monday Music: "Love Like Winter" by AFI

I'd always prided myself on staying current with music, but I'd lost touch. Too many rap artists, boy bands, and pop princesses had turned me off. My music collection was stagnant and too mellow. I needed an infusion of...something. About a year or so ago, I started listening to some of the newer artists that my son was into. I fell in love with AFI.

Hit the play button and crank it up!



Warn your warmth to turn away (away, turn away)
Here it’s December everyday
Press your lips to the sculptures
And surely you’ll stay (love like winter)
For of sugar and ice, I am made, I am made

It’s in the blood, it’s in the blood
I met my love before I was born
He wanted love. I taste of blood
He bit my lip, and drank my war
From years before, from years before

She exhales vanilla lace,
I barely dreamt her yesterday (yesterday)
Read the lines in the mirror through the lipstick trace:
"Por Siempre."
She said, “It seems you’re somewhere, far away"
To his face.

It’s in the blood, it’s in the flood
I met my love, before I was born
She wanted love, I taste of blood
She bit my lip, and drank my war
From years before, from years before

Love like winter Oh OO-Oh
Love like winter, winter, three, four

It’s in the blood, it’s in the blood
I met my love, before I was born
He wanted love, I taste of blood
He bit my lip, and drank my war
From years before, from years before
