Lyrics
A ten dollar blanket
A modest ten-dollar blanket
A bottle of gin

Thunder is rolling

And shaking my skin
Intense emotional impact, shaking the speaker's being
Oooo
Expressing emotion or emphasis
Oooo
-Leaves on my doorstep
Autumn leaves at the speaker's doorstep
Red orange and brown
Describing the colors of the leaves
Are bundled together
Leaves bundled together, possibly reflecting a desire for connection
Like they don't want to be found
Suggesting a reluctance to be found or understood
Oooo
Expressing emotion or emphasis
Oooo
-An empty house
Portraying emptiness in various aspects of the speaker's life
An empty bed
-An empty couch
-An empty head
-These are the nights I always want to forget
Expressing a desire to forget certain nights
I don't wanna be alone now
Expressing a wish not to be alone
These are the nights I always seem to regret
Reflecting on nights that lead to regret
Seasons are changing
Acknowledging the changing seasons, possibly metaphorical
Inside of this room
Describing a change within the speaker's personal space
Snow on the window
Noting snow on the window, a cold and isolating image
Behind a full moon
Reference to a full moon, possibly indicating completion or culmination
Oooo
Expressing emotion or emphasis
Oooo
-An empty house
Reiterating emptiness in various aspects of the speaker's life

-These are the nights I always want to forget
Expressing a desire to forget certain nights
I don't wanna be alone now
Reiterating a wish not to be alone
These are the nights I always seem to regret
Reflecting on nights that lead to regret
Alone in the winter
Describing the solitude of winter and the eventual arrival of the sun
At last comes the sun
-Morning delivered
-To a party of one
-Oooo
Expressing emotion or emphasis
Oooo
-Oooo
-Oooo
Continued expression of emotion or emphasis
