lyrics

Winter closes in, it surrounds us.
But not too often do we defy our lust.
Seems that summer and warmth
have met their annual fate.
Darkness comes a little early.
Morning comes a little late.

The cold, it bites our eyes.
When closed, they turn us unwise.
We walk out of here.
Down the crevice, we peer.
And we leap without hope.
Don’t stand next to me unless you’re going to be
the sunshine.

Now the war is done, and we are all back at home.
You find yourself no one.
From town to town, torn limb from limb,
from season to season, from friend to friend, you roam.

repeat chorus

So many words lost, you find them all and run.
Change them around and they betray you, like the gun.
You jumped the gun.

Winter closes in, it surrounds us.
Not too often, do we defy our lust.

The cold, it bites our eyes.
When closed, they turn us unwise.
