Screeching Weasel - The First Day Of Winter Lyrics

The days are shorter now but you remember now
I just wish that you weren't remembering that way
You're gonna kill yourself
Everything is gray, everything is not okay
And I can't talk to you until I see some light
And that could take some time

The snow and cold keep me inside
I mark the days off on my calendar, I'm doing time
The first day of winter's here
It's going on thirteen years now
And it makes me wanna go

What happened to you, you used to be so beautiful
How did you slip so far? How did you end up strung out?
After all this time it doesn't matter now start from the beginning now
You've got another chance and I'll always forgive you, I will

And pretty soon we'll go and don't you hate that f*cking life
The one the assholes of the world always romanticize
The first day of winter's here
And it's going on thirteen years now
Don't it make you wanna go?

The days are shorter, I hope you'll remember that
I'll always be there whenever you're ready to start
From the beginning but
Time is moving fast, time to get off your ass
Clean it up and get out and get on with it now

And keep on trying and I'll wait for you outside
I'll meet you where we planned
And we'll keep moving, there's still time
The first day of winter's here
It's going on thirteen years now
Don't it make you wanna go?

The first day of winter's here
And it going on thirteen years now
Don't it make you wanna go? [x4]
