    ]The sellers of flowers
    Buy up old roses
    They pull off dead petals
    Like old heads of lettuce
    And sell ’em as new ones
    For cheaper and fairer
    But they die by the morning
    So who is the winner?
    Not the roses
    Not the buyers
    Not the sellers
    Maybe winter
    Cause winter is coming
    Soon after summer
    It runs faster, faster
    Chasing off Autumn
    We go from a warm sun to only a white sun
    We go from a large sun to only a small one
    When I was a small girl I walked through the market
    Holding my dad’s hand, mitten in gloved hand
    At night there were roses lit up in glass boxes
    The heat-lamps would keep them from freezing in winter
    We never bought them but somebody must have
    Maybe they made it or maybe they froze up
    Before any person had put them in water
    And hoped that they’d still be alive by the morning
    Who’s the winner?
    Not the roses
    Not the buyers
    Not the sellers
    Not the tellers
    Of these stories
    Not the fathers
    Not their children
    Not those waking
    On a dark night
    Through a memory
    They’re forgetting
    Who’s the winner? Who’s the winner?
    Maybe winter, maybe winter
    Somebody steps on a light through a tunnel
    They’re holding a piece of their mind in the rubble
    Hold on I won’t let go
    I want to know

    But no one lives long enough
    To see the outcome
    To know any answers
    To know what the point is
    To know if the winter
    Ever came closer
    Than on that night
    When I walked with my father
    A small piece of ice
    Lodged in my mind
    Lodged in my thoughts, lodged in my eyes
    Cold all around, cold all around
    Warm from inside, warm from inside
    Who’s the winner?
    Not the roses
    Not the buyers
    Not the sellers
    Not the tellers
    Of these stories
    Not the fathers
    Not their children
    Who’s the winner?
    Not the roses
    Not the buyers
    Not the sellers
    Not the tellers
    Of these stories
    Not the fathers
    Not their children
    Not those walking
    On a dark night
    Through a memory
    They’re forgetting
    Who’s the winner? Who’s the winner?
    Maybe winter, maybe winter
    Who’s the winner? Who’s the winner?
    Maybe winter, maybe winter
    Who’s the winner? Who’s the winner?
