The Very Earth - Lyrics - Edith Frost
Edith Frost is an American singer-songwriter who describes her music as "pensive countrified psychedelia". Born in San Antonio, Texas, Frost moved to Brooklyn in 1990 where she played in the country bands the Holler Sisters, the Marfa Lights and Edith and Her Roadhouse Romeos. In 1996 she moved to Chicago after signing to the city's Drag City label, which released her demo as a self-titled EP. Debut album Calling Over Time was released in 1997, and has been followed by Telescopic , Wonder Wonder and It's a Game . All were produced by Rian Murphy except Telescopic, which was produced by Neil Hagerty and Jennifer Herrema from the band Royal Trux; Wonder Wonder was engineered by Steve Albini. Frost relocated to the San Francisco Bay area in 2006.

You never said a word about my offering
Once happily i presented for your ogling
And love it's like a vine that withers over time
Or wraps around you with a life of its own
Got to learn to forgive you (for bein' so cold)
Got to give you time (to be alone)
Let you prove your heart is colder than mine
I've come to recognize the ogres fuel the rivalry
Callously letting me go on regretting you
And it seems the very earth is on fire
Poised and ready, just about to ignite
Down on you
Got to learn to forgive you (for bein' so cold)
Got to give you time (to be alone)
Let you prove your heart is colder than mine
Let you prove your heart is colder than mine
