Everyone's getting better I'm getting bitter and I'll be gone by the dead of winter Dead in winter Cold heart, cold blood and I'm running out of time, Running from my mind Nothing makes sense and they couldn't possibly understand that the winter is home to just another winter girl.
If you haven't read Laurie Halse Anderson's "Winter Girls," then here's a little background. Winter Girls essentially refers to eating disorders and starving, along with depression and turning cold, which is a associated with winter. She refers to it as "caught in between worlds. [You're] a ghost with a beating heart." Not dead, but certainly not alive.
