You were tied to this bed
And you're tied to me
Now you won't survive without one or the other
So please chew through my limbs while you sleep
We keep our numbers down, and a hush in our tones
When it was December who knew we'd remember next year for the breaks in our bones
Those clouds coming in are as grey as your skin
In the lounge where the doctors and nurses swap blank stares for curses
The high horses wait to make their moves
With nothing left but red in both your eyes
I hoped you'd be leaving soon
So pull the curtains round and make with your goodbyes
I hope you'll be leaving soon
When summer arrived, we still got cold
And the words moved back and forth across your tongue
Winter's turning into Spring, I remember everything
