Winter Boyfriend - Sanssouci

To Rate
I sat happy, not for the first time
But for the last time before I get out of here
The past hangs heavy, and I need a new pass-time
To make the new past-times out of this aimless year
Plan it into the ground, cover it up in earth

Hide away your possessions like Christmas in reverse
So hard to take, I swear it only made it worse
I've got no plans for new year, I'm saving up for the first
To build an escape like last time, that seemed to work

So plan it into the ground, cover it up in dirt
Seal it with your hands, tell your friends that it hurts
A future so bright on paper, moving back to the outer skirts
Tell them that you tried, tell them that you tried

And I'll wait for new bliss
Heap of soil
Bury this
Furrowed brow
Land tillage
Keep this safe
It's all there is

Winter Boyfriend - Ziggurat
Now and then phone calls to friends seem less of an event, and they come less often Tell in-jokes as old as oaks, on wood grain they're just as cutting So let it go, like plants
