lyrics

The sun didn’t rise today
Snow is on the ground
Frozen in the air
Birds don’t make a sound
Get out of bed, get out of bed
Get up and face the day

Heaney said
We can summer anywhere
Do what we want
If we winter this out
But not this time
On the shortest day

The world didn’t turn today
I floated into space
Silence all around
Moonlight on my face
Come on and breathe, Come on and breathe
Come on and save the day
