[Verse 1]
And after the snow went away
You stood by the fire
With an armful of wood
In your charcoal empire
[Verse 2]
And you smeared all the ashes
All over your body
Smothering the remnants
Of the swollen memories
[Verse 3]
And you ran to the forest
A cold sanctuary
The last breath of snowflakes
Swallowed beneath
