The Cold Part Lyrics
[Chorus]
So long to this cold, cold part of the world
[Verse 1]
So long to this cold, cold part of the world
So long to this bone-bleached part of the world
[Chorus]
So long to this cold, cold part of the world
[Verse 2]
So long to this salt-soaked part of the world
[Bridge]
I stepped down as president of Antarctica
Can't blame me, don't blame me
Don't
[Verse 3]
(So long)
(So long)
(So)
(So long)
So long to this sad, sad part of the world
[Outro]
(So, so, so)
(So long)
(So, so long)
So long to this cold, cold part of the world
[Verse 1]
So long to this cold, cold part of the world
So long to this bone-bleached part of the world
[Chorus]
So long to this cold, cold part of the world
[Verse 2]
So long to this salt-soaked part of the world
[Bridge]
I stepped down as president of Antarctica
Can't blame me, don't blame me
Don't
[Verse 3]
(So long)
(So long)
(So)
(So long)
So long to this sad, sad part of the world
[Outro]
(So, so, so)
(So long)
(So, so long)

Several variations on the cliched suicidal saying “Goodbye, cruel world”.
Beautifully bleak song about Isaac’s departure from a barren wasteland on some side of the world. The location is probably a metaphor for his previous lifestyle of manic depression and self harm. It’s been speculated that the “cold part of the world” is Antarctica.
