What did I do to set you off?
What do I have to do,
To get you off my mind?
It's winter, its cold outside.
Staring into your big doe eyes.
Why did it bring back,
The dizzying highs?
Feels like I've been here, all my life.
Throwing rocks at your window.
But you didn't open them,
Not tonight.
The glass shattered, but I am fine.
Right?
But if angels don't cry,
Then why do the skies weep?
And if God is merciful,
Why is his silence so deep?

She left me in the coffin,
Let go of my hand.
Will she remember me?
When I'm buried in the sand?

Take away this feeling,
Is this even real?
Or am I still dreaming,
Awake in this ordeal?

God, is this my fate?
To leave me in this casket to drown?
Why won't you save me?
Pull me up so I don't fall down?

But she smiled at me, before she left.
Kissed me and wished me the best.
Could of taken me with you,
But she said "let the fallen rest".

But I don't want rest,
So I open my eyes.
Am I back in her bed?
No, I'm back in mine.

There was a girl I know,
With her sea-green eyes.
Who once said to me
"Beware the wolf, for the wolf lies"

"Don't fear the sheep that bleats,
But fear the one that hides
For it may be the wolf hunting,
With its disguise"

"But don't fret for the whispers,
You hear in the light.
For they can't hurt you,
When it is bright"

"The wolf is smart and cunning,
But do not reply.
When he asks you to follow him,
Into paradise"

"But the wolf will fear love,
The wolf will fear right.
For even the darkness,
Won't hide its demise"

"So don't be afraid,
Of the wolves that will just pass by
For you'll find your shelter,
In a love that doesn't lie"

But love, like wolves, can change its form,
And hearts can shift like skies.
Still, I’ll trust her gentle gaze,
Those deep sea-green eyes.

As the days get shorter,
The autumn takes our leaves away.
As the night grows longer,
The winter comes to stay.
The skies they go grey,
Streaked by purple, red and orange.
The sun bows and says its goodbye,
“Glory, Glory, Glory”,
Echoes into the darkness.
But with the cold comes purpose,
Let the fields sleep for a while.
Look up my love,
It’s snowing!

The love of my life once said to me.
"When will you meet me by the sea?"
Her hair golden and Her eyes blue of ice
As if she hasn't got a twinkle in her eye,
Forget me once, maybe I'll thank you twice.
And we will dance together, under the great blue sky.

Hey lady Dawn
What's that colour in the sky?
Could it be the rays of light
From the days gone by?
And dare I cry your name,
As your colours fade to grey.
Take me to that paradise up high.

I don't want to be lonely,
or regretting love every time.
been praying for an angel,
to descend from the skies.
and so little cupid,
with your arrows and wings.
shoot me down,
with a bit of everything.
and tomorrow when I wake up,
with feelings I won't remember.
I catch them and I lose them,
been waiting since november.
