/ Intro (Monologue) /
When the winter came, I didn't quite know what to do with myself.
At night, I'd grab and reach for something, someone.
My room would always be too quiet. My fingers would always feel empty.
And, like, it sounds cliche, and stupid, and untrue. And I've been missing you.
Maybe. But I felt empty, too. I felt empty, too.

/ Intro (Singing) /
So long
So long
Goodbye
Farewell

This
This is the end of me
At least me
As you know me

However long it takes
To get some company
And time 'till I awake
I'll spend it all on me, I am happy

I am happy, with the way things will be
And I'd run my knees into the ground, for what my life really needs

And as I get older
I see the sun rise
As the snow gets colder
I find the warmth inside
If there's anything I've learned
It's that this isn't the end
And impossibility
Isn't too far for me
It isn't too far
For me

There's a bird to fly, there's a star to burn
There's a new tomorrow, there's a world to turn
And I'll be there
I'll always be there
The future's never looked so bright
I see it in my dreams tonight
The best is so close to come
So just hold on, hold on to me

However long it takes
To get some company
And time 'till I awake
I'll spend it all on me, I am happy
