lyrics

We survived the winter
We survived the winter

I awake on a new day
Wipe the dust from my face
I glance over at my Grey
Brief calm starts to fade
This lean-to ain’t got too much space
It keeps the winds at bay
These walls seem bruised
I can’t believe what they got us through

We survived the winter
We survived the winter

It’s all academic now
No one survives
On their own

After everything else has died you and I, we thrive
After everything else has died you and I, we thrive

We survived the winter
We survived the winter

Zoshounds clawing at my mind
Takers leave nothing behind
Snow-covered derelicts
Help us not to forget
And I know how to run
Grey’s smarts won’t be outdone I fend off beasts
And Grey always finds good eats

We survived the winter
We survived the winter

With the strength of Grey’s steel-cut eyes
And a distant whiff of rot ash I say rebel
You will survive

After everything else has died you and I, we thrive
After everything else has died you and I, we thrive

We do what we have to do
We built this from what we found
We scrounge and collect
We protect what we have left

After everything else has died you and I, we thrive
After everything else has died you and I, we thrive
After everything else has died you and I, we thrive
After everything else has died you and I, we thrive

We thrive.
