Текст песни Another Winter (Semisun) - (EM)

the snow has returned
painting streets and trees
the air has a bite
the cold bares its teeth
the wind's picking up
still it won't take me away
the sky stays grey
for days upon days

i'm surrounded by a strange warmth
as I replay my memories
it must be shame
because it's not relief

the birds still sing
they forgot to fly south
the water still flows
through each river's mouth
i hear Joni's voice
i understand her pain
tears form in my eyes
last year's felt the same

i remember well, how I felt
empty, torn open, and broken
nothing has changed
there's no tricks up my sleeve

autumn gives way
to the darkest season
i am still here
i'm not sure the reason
it's been a year
of sadness and struggle
sometimes I wonder
why I go through the trouble

i have tried so hard to get help
but my brain just won't accept it
these coldest months
are a test of my strength

what is normal
i would like to know
this "wellness" I've heard of
must be a joke
when something gets good
i have a talent
of tearing it all down
like I can't stand it

maybe next year
i'll grow into this life
i'll know the way
i'll get rid of the knife
night beckons me
with whispers of release
i've heard it all
i'm not going to sleep

i know spring will set me free
i hope this time it will keep and
i'll stay steady
ready for anything
