about

this song is about cycles.

lyrics

The leaves are all changing to their autumn hues
And the medicine’s stopped working, but I’ve still pulled through
There’s memories of places that still haunt me at night
And bruises on a body that’s never felt right
It’s the quiet parts of the long good night that scare me the most
And it’s the weather changing that turns me into a ghost
There’s broken bones and blood that all spilled from my veins
There’s nothing new or different, it’s all just the same

It’s getting cold again

There are trees in New York that are frozen and bare
The only thing that's left is the cold winter air
I miss the long highways that take me back home
And the warm quiet forests that I used to roam

It’s getting cold again

Parking lots at 4 AM and empty suburb roads
There’s nothing left in that old house but dust and remorse
A few dead friends, some angry words, and some secrets that I kept
But nothing like the people I have loved that have left

It’s getting cold again

I’ll go down to the pharmacy and buy razor blades again
I’ll lay in front of headlights waiting to be struck in the rain
I’ll watch every subway car pass me like a dream
And maybe one day I can be sober and clean
I was told there was a God who would love me all the same
But it’s clear to me that I’m alone, and maybe I’m the one to blame
A lifetime of people has broken me like glass
But maybe you can fix me like no one else has

There’s nothing more I’d love than to have a body I don’t hate
Or a brain that isn’t sick and trying to die every day
But maybe there’s a reason it all happened this way
Maybe there’s a way to overcome all this pain
Another year has gone, yeah, and now it’s getting cold again
Maybe in another year I can forgive myself instead
It was a cold winter day when I almost killed myself
Yeah, well, maybe it’ll be sunny when I finally get some rest
