Dead Winter Dead

Feel the rush, feel the rush in the back of your head
 "Breathe it in, breathe it in," isn't that what they said
 As you stood in the night 'neath the glow of the fires?
 Watch it burn, watch it burn, watch it reach through the night
 Feel the heat, feel the heat as you bask in its light
 As the puppets hang upon their wires
 I've lost my way, kneel down and pray
 It all decays, it takes me down, down, down
 Like the minister said, like the minister said
 Where this all has led... dead winter dead
 Can you hear what I hear in the back of your mind
 As you stand on the stage when they tell you it's time
 To read words from a past you can't remember?
 Gotta keep what you have, tell me what is it for
 If it made sense my friend well then not anymore
 Every dream I'm told has its December
 I've lost my way, kneel down and pray
 It all decays, it takes me down, down, down
 Like the minister said, like the minister said
 Where this all has led... dead winter dead
