The Winter Now Comes
Embracing Winter's Light: A Poetic Journey
Lyrics
The winter now comes
The arrival of winter
Turns day into night
Daylight diminishes, giving way to night
Burn your belongings
Suggests letting go of material possessions
But remember the light
Despite hardships, hold onto hope or positivity
The winter now comes
Reiteration of the arrival of winter
Oh show covered hills
Describes snow-covered hills
Ever the closer
The closer one gets, the more emotionally distant
The more distant I feel
Emphasizes emotional detachment despite proximity
Flowers bloom shortly
Short-lived beauty, symbolized by flowers
The sun comes and goes
Symbolizes the transient nature of sunlight
And the wind she sharpens
Wind intensifies, becoming harsh and cutting
Cutting our bones
Metaphor for the harsh realities affecting humanity
As the world around us
Describes the chilling transformation of the surroundings
Turns icy cold
Portrays a frigid environment
A lowly candle
A small source of light in the darkness
Lights up the snow
Symbolizes hope amidst challenging circumstances
And we run
Action of running, possibly to escape or face challenges
The winter now comes
Repetition of the onset of winter
Hold on to the fire
Encourages holding onto warmth and positivity
Shelter its embers
Preserving the essence of hope and positivity
And keep them in sight
Keeping positive elements in focus
The winter now comes
Restatement of the arrival of winter
Oh open white fields
Depicts vast, open white fields covered in snow
The more I move further
Increased distance diminishes emotional connection
The less that feels real
Emphasizes the fading sense of reality with distance
Flowers bloom shortly
Reiteration of transient beauty through flowers
The sun comes and goes
Symbolizes the cyclical nature of sunlight
And the wind she sharpens
Wind intensifies, representing challenges
Cutting our bones
Harsh realities affecting the core of human existence
As the world around us
Describes the chilling transformation of the surroundings
Turns icy cold
Portrays a frigid environment
A lowly candle
A small source of light in the darkness
Lights up the snow
Symbolizes hope amidst challenging circumstances
And we run
Action of running, possibly to escape or face challenges
Flowers bloom shortly
Repetition of transient beauty through flowers
The sun comes and goes
Symbolizes the cyclical nature of sunlight
And the wind she sharpens
Wind intensifies, representing challenges
Cutting our bones
Harsh realities affecting the core of human existence
As the world around us
Describes the chilling transformation of the surroundings
Turns icy cold
Portrays a frigid environment
A lowly candle
A small source of light in the darkness
Lights up the snow
Symbolizes hope amidst challenging circumstances
And we run
Action of running, possibly to escape or face challenges
