Snow

I am weak and I am selfish

You are but a guest in my heart

Welcome for now, but soon must depart

You're a catherine wheel spinning its last

You'd speed past the hedgerows

I'd ask if it's okay if I smoke

You'd say it doesn't bother you, and you'd smile as I spoke

You're a little child losing his hope

And in the trappings of this silent snow

That fell overnight and won't let me go

Oh, I know that the shame is mine

And the blame is mine to bear

Well I don't think and I don't feel

A cold chill doesn't break me yet

My chest is half empty, my mind a blank cassette

Tomorrow seems a dark distant threat

And if I knew what had pushed you

So far from my heart or my mind

Well would it give you comfort or strength of some kind

Would it give you peace as I leave you behind?

And in the trappings of this silent snow

That fell overnight and won't let me go

Oh, I know that the shame is mine

And the blame is mine to bear

Oh I will never belong, belong to anyone

Oh I will never belong, belong to anyone

And in the trappings of this silent snow

That fell overnight and won't let me go

Oh, I know that the shame is mine

And the blame is mine to bear
