January

I can't take the heat
So I'll stay out of the kitchen
You like the games you brought to play
So I should just sit down and quit my bitchin

Love pulls up in the dark
Slips its tendrils in my veins
Normally I'd take another hit
But right now I cannot maintain

The nagging threat of hope
An itching in the ear
When so much proves the opposite
I must've been asleep the past few years

You can't make me stay here
No you can't make me stay here

I can't take the cold
So I'll stay out of the winter
I'll stay inside and watch my friends get better
While I'm only getting bitter

Three sets of prints in the snow
Two aching feet and a cane
Everyone else seems to get by fine through it all
And I've learned to live with the pain

You can't make me stay here
No you can't make me stay here

Not this month
Not the next
Not with your sun-scorched hands on my neck
I am going
Already gone
January, whose side are you on

Something wicked is coming
And I won't be there to meet it
As the new year bubbles up from the corpse of the last one
I will raise my sword to defeat it

You can't make me stay here
No you can't make me stay here
