These Winter Months Lyrics

We've never seen snow

We've never seen rain

We lived in a paradise, and no surprise

We still felt pain

Cutting my fingernails down to the skin

He told me he'd love me

If he knew that when we fell apart, he'd win

So I bought a ticket just because

I got hooked on the way he buzzed

The way the room could get lit up once

And I'm sick of shutting up my blinds

And letting gorgeous days go by

I'm getting back my peace of mind these winter months

She told me, slow down, and said to be smart

That not every heavy moment is a work of art

I wrote her love letters, and she gave them back

Saying to change this grammar here

And keep your argument on track

So I planted flowers in the tiles' cracks

I sat to watch a while

Let my daydreams run out wild once

And it wasn't love, it isn't now

It's just affectionate snow plows

That push us in and push us out these winter months

Being alone isn't so bad

I'm sitting cross-legged in my bedroom

Talking to my dad

He's saying I'm brave for being naive

'Cause I'm learning how to watch the colors change

And grieve

In paradise, it's always green

The year is blue and so serene

Love is playing slot machines

Over and over and over and over

I never learned a single thing

Just wasted time on empty flings

And now I get to wait for spring these winter months

These winter months

These winter months
