[Verse 1]

Green, in your love on bright days

You grew sun blind, you thought me unkind

To remind you

How winter kills

Lost in daydreams

You drove too fast and got nowhere

You rode on half fare when you got too scared

How winter kills


[Refrain]

Tear at me searching for weaker seams


[Verse 2]

Pain in your eyes makes me cruel, makes me spiteful

Tears are delightful

Welcome your nightfall

How winter kills


[Refrain]

I'll tear at you searching for weaker seams


[Outro]

(How winter kills, how winter kills

How winter kills, how winter kills

How winter kills, how winter kills

How winter kills, how winter kills)

How winter kills
