The Headwinds

There was a cold December snow

On the streets and towns below

You stuck you name into the ground with me

But love like all frigid things

We did melt away with ease

Washed away in liquid ease

We set out into the sea

Like a wave upon the shore

We rose up and crashed back down upon ourselves

And the words that fill our lips

Bitter shrieks and evil quips

Oh how they stain oh they stain the ground below

Like the horn that breaks the fog

I beat down here on my chest love like a drum

And you'll hear my growling voice

Once so silent now I've got no goddamn choice

But to sing my favorite song

Like the headwinds filling soon out of my lungs

Now I'm fighting with the flow

Now what's left here I don't know

Should I stay or should I go

Should I stay or should I go

Should I stay or should I go

Should I stay or should I go

Should I stay or should I go

Should I stay or should I go

Should I stay or should I go

Should I stay or should I go go go

And the luck we had it leaves

But our fate it was to die away with ease

And my dear in years to come

Will you think of me with hate here or with love

And oh this house

We blew the storm

It crumbles back

To the earth below

And I am done

And you are done

And we are gone

And nothing's left here but this song
