We will, we will burn for the winter
A father cries out into the night as his child slips away
A door shuts as the boy reaches that forbidden room
Because we will we will burn oh
Sweat starts to flow
And the shades of gray, getting lighter and lighter
I shiver in the dark coldness all around
And the shades of gray getting lighter and lighter
Because we will we will burn
To take a look at the time
Rhetoric on the radio, don't you go outside
Hide behind my jacket, listen to the cold facts of lies
A man pulls off his glove
From beneath the watch
