lyrics

Thirteenth of a January
Eighteenth of the coming June
I am here
If I could be there too

To heal is a promise broken
To hurt is the coldest storm
I heal strong
Hurt like the falling snow

The storm is ended
But I am still
Tangled in branches under the ice
I hear her calling
Or is that the wind?

What history thins my conscience?
What present would dare endure
She’s a girl
Snowflakes too young to know

There is not one new life within me
Well tell me what the other women do
This year the solstice passes
And still I’m trying to see this through
For the ones who came before me
And told me to pretend
That I could live without her
As I have lost her again and again and again

The storm is ended
But I am still
Tangled in branches under the ice
I hear her calling
I hear her calling
To me she’s calling
Or is that the wind?
