lyrics

Winter: withered, crisp and maned
Press your face to its cool frame
Bite the air and shake the trees
Shake the sky to break the seal
Recollect the memories you have left in dusty piles

Got what you want and it’s not that much at all
Go where you want and it’s not that far at all

Summer knives that bruise the sky
In mourning colours clouds will cry
Bite the air and shake the trees
Shake the sky to break the seal
Recollect the memories you have left in dusty piles

Did you want it? Did you get it?
Did you... crawling now?
Don’t you want it? Can’t you see it?
Can’t you feel it now?
Nothing moves...
Not ever till you kick it hard

Here it comes now crawling
Here it comes now calling your name
Shake your head and bite the air
Here comes the longest day... a small affair
