Silence is all I hear
Blackness fills my world
Midwinter days
and lonely nights
Depression takes over
my frozen mind
<Interlude>
Morning starts a new day
Dawning nowhere to be seen
Oh, won't you break
my chains and let me go
free as a bird in the sky
Winter blows colder
I'm growing older
Visions of darkness
breaking the silence
Winter blows colder
I'm feeling older
Light fades away
I'm here to stay
I'm telling you no one
could ever take your place
open your eyes and you will see
<Interlude>
Winter blows colder
I'm growing older
Visions of darkness
breaking the silence
Winter blows colder
I'm feeling older
Light fades away
I'm here to stay
Winter Winter Winter Winter
cked down
and they put you first in line
And so you finally ask yourself
just how big you are
and take your place in a wiser
world of bigger motor cars

writing up their memoirs
for a paper-back edition
of the Boy Scout Manual
See there! A man born
