Snow on the Rooftops Lyrics

Late December

I remember

I was waiting down by the train and

As I stepped back

From the steel tracks

Checked my watch to find that the face cracked

What did I care? I was already late

Or I was when the clock hit a quarter to 8

And when the train reached me, it pulled in so slow

And I walked from the world as it started to snow

Must be midday

Somewhere, someplace

I'll be 'round; I'm taking the long way

Don't you tire

Of the fire?

Bide your time as stakes pile higher

Up through the ceiling

Losing all feeling

While you critique

The cards that you're dealing

Life is a game for those who win

And we pay the price of each lie that they spin

Oh no

Late December

I remember

I was waiting down by the train and

As I stepped back

From the steel tracks

I looked up to find that the screen cracked

Oh
