Winter Is Coming - The Boxtones

I see the winter, she’s crawling up the lawn

I feel her breathing beneath my palms

She tears the trees down while curses roll from her tongue

Got eyes like anvils and storms for lungs

Hiding in our house, sunburn in his mouth

Summer’s in our basement now

Light beneath the door, light beneath the door

Just enough to keep us warm

Don’t you let it out, don’t you let it out

Just make sure he’s always around

But we’re all out of time, nothing left to decide

Pack your things up quick, this one can’t be fixed

Leave the rest of it behind

We push through trees now, our house is covered in ice

Our breath falls from our mouths like tiny rain clouds

We tug on Summer, and he melts the snow at our feet

She’s on our heels, there’s never time to stop and sleep

I feel you breathing, I hear you curse my name

I hope that you’ll forgive me one of these days

The sky is bleeding, the fog is thicker than walls

She’s wrapped up in it, like cloth on a wrecking ball

Everything we stole, everything we broke

Everything we bought is gone

A couple dumb mistakes, bigger than we thought

Nothing left to do but run

If I could put it back, fill in all the cracks

Nothing there I wouldn’t change

But wishing never helps, wishing never helps

Wishing never solved a thing

You were right

Yeah, you were right

You were right

Yeah, you were right
