Winter Solstice

Last night, 2 AM, woke up with a hunger pang
I don't understand how others make the cravings go away
I just wish my motivation wasn't such a wreck
I'm too stressed (what the heck?), I'm sick of living check to check
I'm discouraged; I can't focus; sometimes I can barely stand
I set fire to the things I love so I can warm my hands
But the cold will find a way; My position is precarious
Summer's in the past, Mother Nature is nefarious

Don't even know where my soul is this Winter Solstice
Don't even know where my soul is this Winter Solstice

December is a warning label; January isn't nice
Seasonal catastrophe, my soul matches the ice
White mouth; self-doubt handed on a silver plate
Wicked winds and shards of ice that wash across the state
A cycle of rely-and-try so we feel vindicated
But it's music and it's hope that make us truly liberated
We hate to be down-and-out but we love to be out of town
I hate it when I'm alone but I panic when they're around

Don't even know where my soul is this Winter Solstice
Don't even know where my soul is this Winter Solstice

I'm seeing no light at the end of the tunnel and I cannot find any hope
The downside of up and I'm feeling so stuck but I'm writing and that's how I cope
Call me pessimistic, call me what you will
I'm over the winter; I wish I could chill
Am I nihilistic? Am I even real?
Bring me the end; How I wish I could feel
I get through the toils And try through the trials
And I can blame that on the art
I'd like to be positive just for a while; that's why I create with my heart
So I'll open up my ears in case positivity calls me
Pass me the Dark Sugar, I need it for my coffee.

Don't even know where my soul is this Winter Solstice
Don't even know where my soul is this Winter Solstice
