[00:11.06]I've been waiting for you to come back
[00:15.84]Since you left Minneapolis
[00:20.84]
[00:22.28]Snow covers the streetlamps and the windowsills
[00:30.02]
[00:32.78]The buildings and the brittle crooked trees
[00:40.59]
[00:44.65]Dead leaves of December
[00:47.72]
[00:49.97]Thin skinned and splintered
[00:53.35]
[00:55.28]Never gotten used to this bitter winter
[01:01.44]
[01:04.81]I've been wasted, angry and sad
[01:09.12]
[01:09.81]Since you left Minneapolis
[01:14.93]
[01:16.12]I wish my thoughts were pure like the driven snow
[01:23.35]
[01:26.47]Like the heavens and the spring's virgin buds
[01:34.85]
[01:37.22]But they strangle me with their sin
[01:42.09]
[01:43.78]Fill me up with poison
[01:47.16]
[01:49.22]Black clouds have covered up the sun again
[01:56.04]
[01:58.72]I can always trace it back
[02:02.72]
[02:03.53]To that night in Minneapolis
[02:08.66]
[02:09.91]Here on the seventh floor in a room I can't call mine
[02:19.10]
[02:21.23]Deadbolt on the door, do not disturb sign
[02:27.43]
[02:31.74]Shaking and trembling
[02:34.93]
[02:37.12]On the clean white linen
[02:40.06]
[02:41.62]Slivers of starlight across the ceiling
[02:48.91]
[02:52.16]A dozen yellow roses
[02:56.35]
[02:56.91]All that's left in Minneapolis
[03:01.85]
[03:03.17]I wish I'd never seen your face or heard your voice
[03:11.04]
[03:13.22]You're a bad pain in my gut
[03:17.35]
[03:18.04]I wanna spit you out
[03:20.85]
[03:25.10]Open up this wound again
[03:28.41]
[03:30.35]Let my blood flow red and thin
[03:34.35]
[03:35.67]Into the glistening
[03:38.98]
[03:40.91]Into the whiteness
[03:44.10]
[03:46.16]Into the melting snow of Minneapolis
