[00:09.55]I press your hand in mine however cautiously,
[00:14.60]I keep a smile right to myself
[00:19.66]And I lapse into the grasp of an overriding obsession
[00:24.66]And I get sick as I watch my interests fall into suspension
[00:29.66]This Winter
[00:32.34]So cold,
[00:33.84]Creeping down your arm
[00:37.27]Stealth soldiers,
[00:38.95]Creeping around your palm
[00:41.76]
[00:42.45]It's hard, hard to understand
[00:47.63]Little victories won creeping around your hand
[00:51.99]
[00:56.11]The sickness has taken hold through violent,
[00:59.10]blurted syllables
[01:01.54]Escape my mouth under my breath
[01:05.66]The voice of pricking dread
[01:07.59]is whispering insistent in my ear
[01:10.27]
[01:10.90]My paranoia galvanised by your gaze, so austere
[01:15.52]
[01:16.08]This Winter
[01:17.01]So cold,
[01:19.70]Creeping down your arm
[01:23.50]Stealth soldiers,
[01:25.12]Creeping around your palm
[01:27.62]
[01:28.68]It's hard, hard to understand
[01:33.86]Little victories won creeping around your hand
[01:39.04]
[01:39.73]I pinned your crest to my chest,
[01:42.22]hoping it might start to look right
[01:47.65]
[01:49.34]There was hushed talk of young boy's corpse
[01:52.46]lying face down in some river
[01:55.58]His hands used to move like mine
[01:59.95]I can't stand myself this morning,
[02:02.25]i am practically that boy
[02:04.62]No strength to endure,
[02:06.06]Ghostly insecure,
[02:07.31]Pallid through lack of choice
[02:10.05]This winter
[02:12.55]So cold,
[02:14.11]Creeping down your arm
[02:15.42]Stealth soldiers,
[02:18.85]Creeping around your palm
[02:22.66]It's hard, hard to understand
[02:26.47]
[02:27.76]Little victories won creeping around your hand,creeping around your hand
