Winter rides the lasting night unto the dawn in harshest light
Brighter barren wastes of land, could not be damned by gods command
Long the lost who wander still between the breaths of Winter chill
Still the heart and freeze the quill, alone again I take the pill.
Down
Down
Down
Only to wake and wish it not, vice and ice yet still remain
Temptations voice I can't refrain
from wishful thoughts that might abstain
should Winter not but nourish pain
and reinforce with great remorse
the perils of this foolish course.
Rattle and shake both bottles and bones
tip the glass with silent moans
Hear the beat as dull as snow
all white again the lonely go.
