The Winter We Got Here
I think about
the winter we got here
The streets where freezing 'till april
The story seems like a fable
We put ourselves
out of touch
with all that we belonged to
You had your reasons too
I hide in my room; I stay in the shed
I'm just feeling stressed and shaken out of bed
When I was younger
say, ten years ago
did I feel better on the whole?
I don't know
Years have gone
I am older
I see that the town's grown colder
still, the snow that falls won't stay
now, why is that?
Give me your embrace
We can retake the strength
I'm just feeling stressed with a strange bated breath
When I was younger
say, three years ago
did I feel safer on the whole?
She said I should try
to act like a man
but I didn't know that was a part of the plan
How should I put it;
Who did you see
the very first time you walked up to me?
James Dean?
