Shudder when you hear my name Thighs meet ground and silent shame Expect the year winds have changed But they left me here and carried you away Blossom, willow grow your leaves 'Cos my soil dries round fractured seeds Couldn't see your lived for trees But forget me no, I'm winter you see And you fight for the heat all summer You were drawn by something you can't see But the land behind you forgotten There's no memory I see But you can't stay warm forever Seasons turn beyond your knees You will migrate again I know it But not to me I'm winter you see Red and wet, unhealthy glow Stiffened fingers close your coat I swear to god that I didn't know That the ice was so thin under the snow And you fight for the heat all summer You were drawn by something you can't see But the land behind you forgotten There's no memory I see But you can't stay warm forever Seasons turn beyond your knees You will migrate again I know it But not to me You will migrate again I know it But not to me You've never tested that for anyone For anyone Wrapped up to your hair save your eyes Much less change the words you'd say for anything For anything It'd still be the state of your lies To me I am winter you see I am winter you see Summer turns beyond me I am winter you see
