Lyrics
Lifeless in my bed, I listen to the snow
I imagine it falling through the light fixtures
Bury me deeply, deeply into the past
But a fire burns through into a new hour
The time gleams in the thick air, the time I hate the most
I dream of a childhood friend, whispering as he dies
The room gets cloudy, but I can still read the words
Words that never change, words I just can't forget
She opens the door, and the snow drifts in
And I...feel it all begin
Every dream has foreshadowed this
My...fear is revealed
All the dreams that shouldn't make sense are beginning to
Muddy feet on the piano, deaths of loved ones
I'm in bed again, but I don't remember why
The door opens once more, but no snow comes in
"Who invited these dark figures," I try to whisper
As one by one they come up to my bed
Some touch my skin lightly, others just look away
Grey light floods the room, the shades are open
Slowly they leave, looking at me once more
I can't see their eyes, but I feel their expressions
And through the walls I hear them speaking, so thoughfully, emotionally, regretfully
Tears fall with sustained sound, but I promise it won't last
She closes the door, and the snow all melts
And I...sense it all end now
My own words foreshadowed this
My...secret was revealed
