**Watch the sun rise one more time
It'll just go right back down again
The moon, again, floats on by
Changing tides and lighting
skies**
There's this hallowed path we take
This whisper in the vines
Don't stumble there my little friend
You haven't much more time
No sleep, no rest no stopping now
The future looks so bright
As we look ahead again
On toward the morning light
**Less dark left, the light comes soon
Born again to light the room
Along it brings a brand new day
Again one more has ticked away
Three-thousand and, six-hundred ticks**
I pray to God that this one sticks
Cause heaven knows I've felt the ******
This winter's gonna be a *****
And God forbid you start to itch
**The weather here is getting cold
I feel it in my bones
And with the cold a chapter's ended
The storm before the calm**
A baby takes his infant steps
A drunk man tells a lie
Eventually we'll all be dust
So there's no use to cry
**Soak it up, you'll need the juice
To get your fears to disappear
**** some sorrow, cut it loose
Be ready for what's near**
Hold it in and blow it out
Shelter from the cold
Every time you do this ****
You say it's getting old
**So...... I will say it's over
We all know our role
From now until never
Leave nothing or no one out in the cold**
