Winter’s Last Gasp

When I sleep I dream too much
Kept me breathing since December
The winter air is warm all day
And I can smile as I remember

When I sleep the golden twilight sun
Warms the bums at the train station
And the streets are paved navy blue
Traffic jams are blessed with patience

When I sleep the skies are deep
The grass is tall and unaffected
And the need for war is gone
People live lives as selected

When I wake the cold bites my hands
This whole peaceful world's dismembered
In the day it's hard to ignore
I'm just tryin' to remember
