C#
It's not cold enough
Please put this side up
She is moving through
A#m      A       G#    C#
Can we show our faces now?

I'm not interesting
She's not turning green
Shameful as it seems
Can we show our faces now?

Chorus:
D C#
    Endless Climb
D C#       G
    I am blind
    Why can't I hear?
    Color blind
    Speaking a phrase
    Instantly grown
    I am blind
    Waiting in line

It's not cold enough
Please put this side up
She is moving through
Can we show our faces now?

I'm not interesting
She's not turning green
Shameful as it seems
Can we show our faces now?

Chorus:
Endless Climb
I am blind
Why can't I hear?
Color blind
Speaking phrase
Instantly grown
I am blind
Why am I shown?
