lyrics

Spring
©2002 Alice Bierhorst/BMI

CHORUS
Darkness falls down all around us
You would think it was SPRING
Darkness falls down all around us
You would think it was SPRING

Snow falls down like stars
Filling in our footsteps
Burying our wounds behind
Smile through the tightness that
Pulls our voices shut
I dream of sheep
And the blind keep leading the blind

CHORUS

Your eyes were hot with anger
Setting off small fires
Everything they touch melts down
All the lovely whiteness shrinks
Underneath your heat
Revealing only scarred and battered ground

CHORUS

Standing by the fire
Standing by the heat
I wanna jump in the flames
And eat myself alive
The last sips of desire sting
In the back of my throat
I dream of sheep
And the blind keep leading the blind

CHORUS

I can't close my eyes
I can't close my eyes
I can't close my eyes again
