Northern Winds

Northern winds came wistling through evergreens Like trains One temper broods 'till a temperature breaks And blooms-smashing and tearing what we've worked toward One hand will break what he other hand builds Board the windows up Keep the cellar locked We'll feign restraint until it's over and settled Our wills are just as strong as the walls we built for them I won't rebuild what i have crumbled I'm tired What is faith- it's been replaced by insurance policies When one thing breaks we'll just have in replaced Like faith... once whistled through the trees Now so still One hand will break what the other hand builds Board up the windows Keep the cellar locked You never know when little fevers- could flare up For every day when it's calm, there must be something brewing There's always something storming through these evergreens Like trains Northern winds came crashing and burning down our walls.
