Grandmother taught me
When high winter comes give thanks
She wondered if her mother could hear her when
She said the words she learned to say
Autumn falls into winter
After the last leaf is long fallen
On the shortest day
Everywhere is Winter
Three newans of WinterGardens
Thirty-three snow flower petals
Eighteen nymphs dancing in the grove
I am home among the First Garden,
As I would hide in cupboards
Under the bed, her searching
I would hear her speak those words
She would speak those words
To make me reveal myself
I spoke them softer to hide
cause that's the trick
Autumn falls into winter
After the last leaf is long fallen
On the shortest day
Everywhere is Winter
Three newans of WinterGardens
Thirty-three snow flower petals
Eighteen nymphs dancing in the grove
I am home among the First Garden,
Was there when it became a thing
When that Titania whore placed the crown on her
We had done it but the fireflies knew what was to come
The snow would become redder than before
Three sisters, two shall war,
one will fall and the other will hide
All will sleep and be forgotten
The fireflies knew it and tried to warn us
But it was high winter
As the celebration reached the stars
Autumn falls into winter
After the last leaf is long fallen
On the shortest day
Everywhere is Winter
Three newans of WinterGardens
Thirty-three snow flower petals
Eighteen nymphs dancing in the grove
I am home among the First Garden,
For years and years, the two sisters fought
The other hid and refused to reveal herself
Blood upon the snow's white in the Summer Months
She sang those words and I forgot all
Freed me of my life and hide me like a newan hides
Autumn falls into winter
After the last leaf is long fallen
On the shortest day
Everywhere is Winter
Three newans of WinterGardens
Thirty-three snow flower petals
Eighteen nymphs dancing in the grove
I am home among the First Garden,
