lyrics

JANUARY MAN

Welcome to my home pretty stranger
I'm better known as the January Man
You can stay as long as you want to
But I won't always be there

I was hoping for rain today
To wash my eyes filled with dust and clay
This heat makes it easy 
To hide away

You want to talk of all those years ago
When winter covered the world
How something like this could be
I never wanted to know

In that forest far from the clashes
Between the gates of heaven and the lake of ashes
I was cutting people's hair 
And breathing in the gasses

Little things take a different meaning
When you've been to hell and back
Now I live in this desert of plenty
If nothing else just to show you this

In this brooch a lock of hair
From when I shaved my mother's head
She who once had clothed me 
Was there naked

I was hoping for rain today
To wash my eyes filled with dust and clay
This heat makes it easy 
To hide away
