Let Her Go by Troubador No comfort has the fire shedding little more than light The warmth creeps slow across the ground and barely heats the night It swirls about your ankles as the wind it cuts your flesh And you shiver with the notion of an oft' impending death You're colder than the driven snow and harder than the steel The leaden weights upon your mind are all you'll ever feel It hurts to know you cannot change, perhaps you never will Inside your head you're far away, but here you're standing still The undertakers scraping spade, a hard and rasping sound It makes you think of being there, a-lying in the ground You close your eyes and shut it out, but still the spade scrapes on The padre murmurs litany, reminding you she's gone You shiver once, shiver twice, but you know it's not the cold This wind can tear your fingers off, but this is not so bold The fire crackles silently and in it's light you know That if you do not leave her, you'll be colder than the snow
