You're holding bits of styrofoam
With your face painted on to your friends
You listen to them whine and moan
About everything you can't understand

Can I just say I don't fear the light
But darkness descends once more into my life

And suddenly we're all alone in silence, so I take a step away
I look up to the falling snow as it makes its home upon my face
Well, I wouldn't want to ruin something I couldn't save
The gap will keep us safe, the gap will keep us safe

Step away
Get me when I'm down

And suddenly I'm five years old and I'm just so cold I want to cry
I haul up on my gentlemen who have always been there in hard times
They're just not like that man of mine who visit me from time to time

My love
I treasure you

I hear that summer's coming back, oh, I stretch out my back and travel long
The winter though it darkens me, it is pure and clean and, oh, I want it
I'll apologize to the ones I love for leaving them when the sun comes up

Too bright for me
Darkness descends

Oh, well I'm not well again
And once more darkness it descends
The ground is falling under me
And I can't find the means to leave

Convinced that I am going mad, oh, I bury my head into his hands
So sure that I'm loosing faith, oh, I clear a space in his fathers land
You deal with God far too young before you know it your life has run away
