The clock is gonna turn back soon, the season is already changing
We said goodbye for the final time, my room needs rearranging
The sidewalk is full of people and leaves, and we're all turning colors
I want more radiance and less green, this season is my perfect lover
Long nights for more dreaming, short days to fill real and fast
Sweaters for my heart's safe-keeping, for my soul's heating, through the cold of winter to last
The clock is gonna turn back soon, I've an eye upon its fixtures
The wall waits patiently for the sun's first rays and the day no one's there to witness
We gave it a good go, no, I guess we can't exist in this
So I'm gonna celebrate this new year with all the good witches
Little chocolate bars are for little kids
I want a cauldron and the nourishment that comes with it
This broke me down, no, I am not fixed yet
I broke myself open for this, made a space that you could fit in
Clocks and hearts and time keep going, but we didn't
♪
The clock tick tocks and I walk alone like I am used to
I wanted to call your bones home but I didn't get to
Your shoulder a stopover and I guess I had to
I was lonely from no love and you showed me what it could do
You showed me what I would do when I had some but it is not to be with you
And I've been sad enough, and I've been mad some, but what good does that do?
The leaves are not upset that they're leaving their branches
Things change, time passes, death happens
And what happened surely changed me
And the hereafter is full of sadness that is raw and oh-so-so-sweet
Because every time a cold heart thaws, it sends a river of tears to nourish the ground on the way to the sea
