It's a winter sky
The days sleep early and the skies cry ice
It's a winter sky
People run away and they hide inside
It's a winter sky
The boats are all tied up and the grey tides rise
It's a winter sky
Every sound sharp and so steely-white
It's a winter sky
The wind cuts like knives and burns like a fire
It's a winter sky
The snows drift through the heart and the veins pump ice
Any other day and it would be
Any other way, it would be seen
On any other day it would be fine
It would be fine
It's a winter sky
A path that's gone away and lost to sight
It's a winter sky
The stream frozen over and caves of ice
It's a winter sky
The creatures all have fled and the forest goes quiet
