brentalfloss - The Ballad of Jeff
текст песни

The noble pine stands alone
No one to see how tall it’s grown
In its frozen home
So it stands in the snow
And the north winds blow
It’s a cold little life here in Winters

And there’s a boy all alone
No one to care how tall he’s grown
In his frozen home
So he stands on his own like the pine

And as the snow falls down
It never makes a sound
Sure, it seems to fly around
But it’s headed for the ground
This winter’s gonna be long, yeah
This winter’s gonna be long

And in his dreams, he can fly
A daring genius hero guy
With a dad nearby
But he wakes,
And there’s snow
And the north winds blow
It’s a cold little life here in Winters

So will he live like the pine?
Perfectly still, just killing time,
In a slow decline
Or will he come to be something more?

Maybe adventure lies
Beyond the snowy skies
With a purpose and a friend
Waiting just around the bend
Till then he’s gotta be strong, yeah
‘Cause winter’s gonna be long
This winter's gonna be long
