[Intro]

Winter snakes sleeping in the lobby

I better find a hobby or I'll become a snake too

Sneaking out the courtroom just as the judge condemns you

Life is just a pretty game that we don't want to play

I almost cried once at a homeless man in the fast food chain

One, two, three, two, two, three


[Verse 1]

Don't you know that it's alright if we don't do something right?

What is this heavy light

Overcoming me every night?


[Chorus]

Is it our fault if we're doomed?

Consuming me, consuming you

If you're tired, let's kick back

Lay in the sun and take a nap


[Verse 2]

Winter snakes, do you know how many times you've seen it snow?

Is it all in your head

A pretty girl in your bed?

Maybe I don't deserve

A single thing, not promising

Anything, a glimmering girl

A silver trout, a broken world


[Chorus]

God's great grace, a funeral

A fire full of old books

Sleeping still, are you dead?

Do you want to be? Is that all that's left?


[Instrumental Outro]
