lyrics

The winter breeze is cold outside
My lighter fluids like fireflies
My hands are chilled barely thawed at the bone
So this is what it feels like to be alone

I tell myself that I'm just passing time
When it's I who's letting time pass by
Arctic skin no desire to win
The mere thought is asinine

And so I'll hold myself close
Such a gracious host
As headlights fade in the distance
A lonesome night
The third of July
This is a place with which I'm far too familiar

The streetlights flicker
My throat feels dry
My fingers fumble as they grasp and pry
Warming fire trickles down my throat
My own personal antidote

And so I'll hold myself close
Such a gracious host
As headlights fade in the distance
A lonesome night
The third of July
This is a place with which I'm far too familiar

My minds a fickle temptress
I wish I had the heart to address what I have done
I gave us away I pushed from bend to break
All I did was take
Now you're gone
Now you're gone
You're gone

Apathy and melancholy
The wind whispers a lovesick lullaby
Recap the bottle, rinse and repeat
I'll reassess after some sleep
