lyrics

Like a railroad spike in my side, like the shimmer in your eyes; I know that I'm weak.
You sit over your pot of gold, and you don't know the impact you've made inside my head.
You lay in your snowy bed. Enjoy your warmth, I hope you know you're making me warm too.

So frame your face, and frame my life. I'm tired of looking through clouds and red eyes.

You honestly can't expect to have security forever. The doors will be ripped open, you'll be forced to bare the weather.
The sky is so much darker when you're under the umbrella, but your face is still wet from all the things you'll never know.

So frame your face, and frame my life. I'm so tired of looking through clouds and red eyes.
I see you standing there, waiting for me, and I understand what I can be.

So frame your face, and frame my life. I'm so tired of looking through clouds and red eyes.
I see you standing there, waiting for me, and I understand all I can be.

Spring is the start of something new for everyone, and I know the rest of the year is going to be just fine.
