When the cold is here Will I crumble with the freeze? Who am I asking When I speak to empty air For things to change? Here I sit So near to tears Upset from nothing But still Wanting to wilt Can I not drift away with the summer leaves, we being so alike? High winds Always bring us down Being so loosely tethered To our own hearts It would be so easy to follow Those hollowed remains Of this worn and weathered life Now battered and dejected Fallen and forgotten Ready to ride the wind Is it not funny How I wish to be with the leaves?

When the Cold Comes
When the cold is here Will I crumble with the freeze? Who am I asking When I speak to empty air For things to change? Here I sit So near to tears Upset from nothing But still Wanting to wilt Can I not drift away with the summer leaves, we being so alike? High winds Always bring us down Being so loosely tethered To our own hearts It would be so easy to follow Those hollowed remains Of this worn and weathered life Now battered and dejected Fallen and forgotten Ready to ride the wind Is it not funny How I wish to be with the leaves?
