The flickering TV
Our days are sloped and steep
But we get by
Climbing up like soldiers
Our phone calls late at night
They glow like candle light
They're warm like double
Duvets on our shoulders
When you leave
I can breathe
Clear my chest
But don't forget to wave
Your tracks in snow
As you go
Winter's cold
But don't forget to wave to me
We steamed the windows up
Let iron patience rust
We're gonna have to throw ourselves outside
And when the blizzard comes
Let our feet go numb
We'll be treading lightly for a long time
The snapshots fizzle out
Two was such a crowd
I bet your voice is different since I saw you
Though the ice melts grey
Summer's on its way
I'm brave enough to crawl out from my igloo
When you leave
I can breathe
Clear my chest
But don't forget to wave
Your tracks in snow
As you go
Winter's cold
But don't forget to wave to me
