The snow falls around me in the peacock window light the trees wave hello to me while I find a candle to fight Just let me catch my breath we spend time wandering through the towns that our father chose and we spend days looking for the perfect garden rose because i’ve seen men who stand behind their father’s grave while they hand a gun to the hand they shake and they wait and they wait and they wait a woman walks into the street with a gun and a boy walks to school wishing he had one and we hate and we hate and we hate I’ve stood at the wall and I chased down the hall your sister ran towards the light we danced in the morning while my brother was snoring and we held each other tight
