[Verse 1]
Early morning procedure, time to greet the sun
Ain't no time for a breather till the work is done
Feel the wind and a shiver as the trees turn brown
See the crops start to wither as the leaves fall down

[Chorus]
Leave the letter unopened till it all starts breaking down
The cold sleepless nights were slowly killing me
So I moved from the city to this quiet country town
Now I'm wide awake because I need to be, need to be

[Verse 2]
Getting by on a sliver since the snow came through
Lots of fish in the river, only one is true
Soon we won't need a heater for a brand new day
Nothing else can be sweeter once it melts away

[Chorus]
Leave the letter unopened till it all starts breaking down
The cold sleepless nights were slowly killing me
So I moved from the city to this quiet country town
Now I'm wide awake because I need to be, need to be
Leave the letter unopened till it all starts breaking down
The cold sleepless nights were slowly killing me
So I moved from the city to this quiet country town
Now I'm wide awake because I need to be, need to be
