Winter by the fire

Well you know it takes time

To find who’s the shadow

And who are you

You know arms can break

From holding your own soul

Too tight and dry

But you forgot

How to play fair

Shielding your heart
With all the wrong words

Savage thing

Don’t dig my grave

Oh my sweet deathly thing

Come back and make my day

Give me my dose
Of poisonous hope

Now I’ll see it

In every glimpse of light

Like in the old sad days

Oh no the old sad days

The streets are full

An empty cave's my gaze
Bad news landed
Absence is the new presence

And the moon scared all the ghosts

Except yours

Savage thing

Don’t dig my grave

Oh my sweet deathly thing

Come back and make my day

Give me my dose 
Of poisonous hope

If you say so

I’ll trust it all

If you do wrong

I’ll fix it now

But please don’t fade

Don’t fade so soon

There’s a lake in you

Where I can swim

And a sky

Where I can dream

Please don’t fade

Don’t fade so soon

I’ve been waitin

Waitin for too long

For a savage thing

To switch me on

To turn off all

Oh my savage thing

Oh my savage thing
