under a pale silver tree i waited
for your call to arise in the wind
strange vibes went through my body
one winter passed by, marked my skin
a red cardinal flew over my head
as tears started to turn to dirt
the cold was something i couldn't handle
two winters passed by, marked my mind
my hands became numb and went all white
the bench were i sit started to crack
the white cold became red with my blood
two winters passed by, and you're not here
