	Story Behind the Song A song inspired by a half awake/half asleep moment. I woke in the night and there was utter silence when there would usually be the sound drunks and police sirens in the street. In my fuzzy state I entertained the possibility that armageddon or similar may finally have happened. A few days before the intense low white light from the winter sun had reminded me of the sterotypical nuclear flash that you see in some movies. Lyrics I’m not moving in the dark Barefoot on the wood I can barely hear the sound of my breath Could the world have disappeared Has time stood still for me I don’t hear the sound of people in their sleep In a voice no one would hear I wanted silence like a tomb Now I cannot believe what I feel With eyes a flutter under my skin And with the lines all hard upon my face Outside I wouldn’t know the world is dying When I come to under a winter sun Will I still be the only one That’s awake beneath a winter sun I’m underneath a winter sun Inside the kind of dream so strong My mind won’t hold together long… My head won’t shake with disbelief Eyes are playing tricks on me Now I don’t remember what I thought was true Will I turn the handle on the door And face the world beyondBut I am too afraid of what I’ll find I run a hand along my wall The ground is shaking underneath Should I run away and hide above the sky The fear and sweat run along my back And someone somewhere cries in shame I only need to hear the sound of sirens [Chorus] Underneath that winter sun The sight of that winter sun Underneath that winter sun Underneath that winter sun We fade beneath the winter sun
