Lyrics Half A Week Before The Winter - Vanessa Carlton
Half
a
week
before
the
winter
The
chill
bites
before
it
comes
I'm
a
child
of
the
pleasure
Daddy
brings
before
he
runs
He
sits
behind
a
desk
of
mahogany
He
whispers
dreams
into
my
ear
And
though
I've
givin'
him
his
empire
He
delivers
me
my
fear
The
unicorns
are
riding
high
Powerful
in
coats
of
white
I
turn
to
look
and
burn
my
eyes
I
carry
on,
I
carry
all
the
weight
of
empty
promise
As
I
stand
swallowed
by
the
light
Flickering
above
the
highway
I
hold
my
head
and
know
The
streets
are
mine
tonight
The
vampires
are
growing
tired
The
coats
of
white
all
turn
to
red
My
heart
burns
with
desire
I
carry
on,
I
carry
on
The
unicorns
are
riding
high
Powerful
in
coats
of
white
We
turn
to
look
and
burn
our
eyes
I
carry
on,
I
carry
The
vampires
are
growing
tired
The
coats
of
white
all
turn
to
red
My
heart
burns
with
desire
I
carry
on,
I
carry
on
I
carry
on,
I
carry
on
We
carry
on
