Winter comes
ever so often
Wish I wore
my coat
Leaves turn
brown to fall
Once full
of life held high
It’s like the
color bled out
Into the gutter now black and white
Baby its cold
outside
But you don't
let me in
Summers over
Guess its
time for it to begin
Yet again
When spring
comes round
I pick it like a scab
To let winter
start over
Can't seem to
mend the seams
Cold steel
flashes in my mind
Oh excuse me,
that’s out of line
Maybe I am
supposed to be alone
Just have fun
and play in this snow
But I dream
of that gentle, warm coast
Your waves
crashing into my bones
I guess
paradise is just a vacation
Even if you
never left home
