I used to sit up front
Ride the fast ones
Buildings north would seem to drop away
Falling with a bounce
Not left or right
I've walked these steps 12 thousand times
I used to wait for that train
In troubling sleep
She was the only one who knew my name
I was 25,
Something like that
Michelle chants softly in my ear, something i can't hear
What was that prayer we'd say?
The one i wish we'd never known
The one that made us too afraid
To carry it all alone
Inside a room he cries
Inside a womb she dies
I felt like the wind had been
Kicked out of me
As the noise and the dark filled up my head
Past the neighborhoods
And the platforms
After two more stops she led me off
Down into the streets - we're ghosts as white as snow
Down into the streets - we're ghosts as white as snow
It's winter outside, it's night by afternoon
It's winter outside, it's night by afternoon
What was that prayer we'd say?
The one i wish we'd never known
The one that made us too afraid
To carry it all alone
Inside a room he cries
Inside a womb she dies
It's winter outside, it's night by afternoon
It's winter outside, it's night by afternoon
Round & Around we go
When we will stop, we don't know
Round & Around we go
When we will stop, we don't know
We're white as snow
We're white as snow
We're white as snow
We're white as snow
