December Dark

December dark, the leaves have long since fallen
The barren branches are all done, the days unwind without sun
December dark, the air so cold around me
My eyes so old, I can't see, my fears grow older than me.

December dark, my roots start reaching downwards
Their vines are twisted around my lines
Then when the clouds part
That's where my mind blooms, I know I'm no longer December dark.

Then when the clouds part, we start anew, there's no other way I know
Seasons to seasons cut since long ago
When it comes around again, my hurts will bend like a bow
To shoot an arrow in the stone, arrow in the stone.

It will soon be back, December dark
It will soon be back, December dark
And it will soon be back, December dark
And it will soon be back, December dark.

December dark, December dark
It will soon be back, December dark.
