Winter's in you
It sneaks out your mouth
Like the snake spits poison
You decide what comes out

There's ice on the path
To your dangerous house
Your heart plays the owl
Mine plays the mouse

Your heart beats cold
And holds
The night shines red
Against the light
It's a matter of time
'Til time's not the matter
'Til all of us mad hatters
Decide to wear our hair when we go
Out there...

It's fine in passing
When it comes with the rest
Yours lasts all year
The winds howl in your chest

Frost makes bones brittle
And soon you will break
And hiss your last curse
When there's no love left to take

Your heart beats cold
And holds
The night shines red
Against the light
It's a matter of time
'Til time's not the matter
'Til all of us mad hatters
Decide to wear our hair when we go
Out there...
