Winter Song Lyrics
Jesus knocking on my door
Late last night, and early this morning
Window glass, rusted and weary
I went straight through
And didn't hear no warning
Just a roll of the dice, and a precious vice
To bring you 'round, it's easier
When I'm wasting my time
And I'm losing my mind
Oh my mind
Trying to wait for the sky to fall
It's kind of hard now to see it all
Whisper a song of winter in your heart
Dead end street, just out my back door
I heard what's seen, a young girl laughing
Now raindrops fall away like souls
I wondered if she ever heard mine dying
Just a roll of the dice, and a precious vice
To bring you 'round, it's easier
When I'm wasting my time
And I'm losing my mind
Oh my mind
Trying to wait for the sky to fall
It's kind of hard now to see it all
Whisper a song of winter in your heart
(repeat)
Jesus knocking on my door
One last time, and early this morning
having a hardened heart?
i don't know, but i love this song.
Sounds to me like it's about a risky lifestyle. Around that time, every day Mark "rolls the dice" with his lifestyle of scoring and taking drugs. The mention of jesus knocking on his door for the last time obviously implies death. It's not a reach to suggest his death, over a decade after he stopped using drugs, was likely influenced by his poor lifestyle. RIP.
