Winter Storm

[Verse 1]
You settle into my thoughts like a winter storm
Sweeping away the calm I can never quite embrace
You arrive without knocking
Spreading into every corner
And in the silence
I hear you stay

[Pre-Chorus]
I lock the door
You find a crack
I turn away
You pull me back
Cold on my skin
Warm in my chest
I can't decide
What hurts the best

[Chorus]
Winter storm, winter storm
You take my name
Winter storm, winter storm
Leave me changed
(leave me changed)
Winter storm, winter storm
I brace for you
And every storm
Still leads me through

[Verse 2]
Your shadow hangs on the window glass by morning
Like a trace of frost I can't wipe clean
I say I'm done with this
Then I hear your footsteps
Right in the space
Between my dreams

[Pre-Chorus]
I build my wall
You climb it slow
I hold my breath
You already know
Cold on my skin
Warm in my chest
I can't decide
What hurts the best

[Chorus]
Winter storm, winter storm
You take my name
Winter storm, winter storm
Leave me changed
(leave me changed)
Winter storm, winter storm
I brace for you
And every storm
Still leads me through

[Bridge]
If you pass, take the ache with you
If you stay, then stay for good
I’m standing here in the wreckage
Trying to love the weather
Like I should

[Final Chorus]
Winter storm, winter storm
You take my name
Winter storm, winter storm
Leave me changed
(leave me changed)
Winter storm, winter storm
I brace for you
And every storm
Still leads me through
