and winter smirks
i see a cloud
a rain cloud over my head
and it’s made up of tears
and waterworks
it’s so damn cold
and i stay weary and wet
the storm is in my ears
and winter smirks
when raindrops fall
and turn to ice
it must be cold
outside
when shadows crawl
upon my face
i must be old
inside
i make my blood
run on and on with a beat
i shake my arms and feet
while winter smirks
it’s freezing cold
out in the concrete street
i feel so incomplete
while winter smirks
i’m old inside
i say good night
and i turn off the light
while winter lurks
it’s cold
it’s cold tonight
and i fall into white
while winter smirks
