eliza mclamb - winter solstice كلمات الأغنية

baby shoes on the sidewalk
they’re playing hopscotch in the dents we left in the concrete
never wore those moccasins you got me for my birthday
wasted all the gift card money on toys and games and other things that break

even then i sensed an emptiness in winter
when the creek froze in december, i could feel myself getting older
maybe it was the soft decay, brittle branches finally breaking
that showed me time outside my understanding

it’s not like michigan in spring
when they find the kids who went out wandering and didn’t make it home
still i feel a little death in the shorter days, when dinner’s on the table
getting cold and no one cares to pick up the plates

even now i see the dollhouse, perfect still
in all its little ways, though it exists i cannot place it
and i witnessed its decay, solace healing when it caved in
when i go back, i have to dig it out from ruin

little boots turning up when snow washes away
got power tools in the truck for the elusive someday
we can sweep the streets, clean it up
but everything that’s coming up was supposed to have gone away

- eliza mclamb
