My "knuckle down and draw strength from whatever source in the face of adversity" song. Personally, it plays in my head when doing drudge work or running hills. Emma's screaming bridge has to be the best rock violon solo around.

Lyrics

Cold Fire - Erik Haakenstad

There’s a cold fire burning in me
A dark flame heating me
A pale glow down deep at the core
A cold fire burning in my soul

Oh I’m leaner, keener now
And the flywheel’s spinning ‘round
Churning till the day is gone
Burning in me all night long

The breath is smoking from my mouth
No wind, no rain can put it out
Like an ice train on a long haul run,
Nothing can stop me from coming along

Oh I’m leaner, keener now
And the flywheel’s spinning ‘round
Churning till the day is gone
Burning in me all night long
