lyrics

Catching a cold in the late December air that's going stale
Counting the trees and the limbs that were severed when you were a child
And you're growing but they're not

Outside your window they pass by
And Outside your life they fly

Whistling a song I heard your brother singing once
You don't talk to him as much since you spilled your cup
If blood is thicker what does that say for the deep blue sea
That pulls the moon in with the tide and sings her soft to sleep

Inside your head you're going blind
Take advantage of your kind
And the knife you slip into your own spine will only sharpen mine
You'd call it a motive I'd just blame it all on spite

Paint the leaves a pale green so they're less plain to see
A softer hue won't hurt the eyes as you watch them bleed
