It was snowing when I woke up the window was open but I didn't care

Put a shirt on and I got up, didn't mind the freezing air

And the snow came blowing in through the window that I didn't shut

My room was a tundra that I knew but I thought my warmth might be enough for you

So we made angels in the floor where I lay

And I said that I didn't want this to ever change

So we made a promise that we would stay stuck in the ice age

And we kept our mouths shut and we lived in the house that I made

But we were cold

So I made a fire inside my heart

I fed it with pieces of my soul

You said it was a work of art

But I knew I would never be whole again

So don't look too deep into my heart

You'll find me broken buried in shards

Dead grass lies underneath the snow

I'm buried too deep for you to ever know who I am

And I dug myself too deep

This time I think I'm gonna keep

A line to the surface where you're standing by

Telling me that I am gonna be fine

But I can't believe that this time

Things are really gonna change

Shouldn't I start acting my own age

Isn't there a part for me in this play

If my part's been filled than why should I stay

I'm waiting for the storm to blow over

Think I need a new four leaf clover

Cause mine's run out of luck

Oh trust me, I know that I suck

I just need some time to grow up

Into someone who doesn't give a fuck

And I've known all along

That all I needed was someone to sing along

And that's you, it's true, I've always needed you

To be here, always near, my greatest fear has always been losing you

And maybe I'm just insecure, I've never been quite so sure, about the part that I play am i the poison or the cure

And I don't know if it's me or if you're just all I see but I think that I know just what I'll be

When the parts have all been cast the snow and rain have passed I'll be standing tall for you you'll be my sail and I your mast and if that's what we have to do to keep our ship sailing through the storm that's broke against our hull then

I will last forever darling if that's what you need

An eternal anthem in an endless sea

Where tides are brutal and storms are rough

I know I'm not perfect just hope i'm enough

So if you need my hand don't hesitate

To clear you conscious start an empty slate

Let's close the window and let's bring it home

Our fire's smothered and our life is coal

But there's heat left somewhere, that I know

So take my hand and please dont' please don't go
