Embers

Last night was season's first snow, and it took me by surprise

My car's windows were open, I left my firewood outside

I was gonna go hiking, guess I'll go to the bar

But my living room is cold now, so I work on the fire

And it's when I'm at my weakest, that the fire starts to burn

My room is so much brighter, I guess I won't ever have to go to bed cold

I put more socks on, cause I'm out of supplies

And everything gets darker as the fire slowly dies

And all I have is embers, they're warm if you're up close

But if I shift them around any longer they'll leave just like everybody else
