I Remember This Place Being Bigger

I Remember This Place Being Bigger - Dead Man Winter/David Simonett

I was safely on the run in fall in a city after dark

And I found I knew no one at all

It took the blood right out my heart

Watched it go from fall to winter falling snow would freeze and splinter me

In a place like this with someone like you

Didn't sleep for days and days on end

And the fog got pretty dense

Other people like to tell me they

Had the same experience

What f**king died in this place if I have to see your smiling face

On a faded stool in a faded bar acting like the world didn't clearly end

Like we thought it would in another time

Think I'd go back to where I'm from

I can stumble out of here

At least in Minnesota they don't run

And hide this time of year

Perforate your pretty paper lay it down so we can dance on graves

In the frosted dawn

With the ones we love some are here right now

And some are gone for good

But I can feel them all in this world tonight
