Winter 03:30
Winter has taken its course, leaving our skin a cracking blanket Trees bare their fragile frames as the rain turns white Covering the roofs and leaves without hesitation Conquering the greens and browns It makes our conversations Vapors of love, frustration, and anger Emotions exposed, floating from our lips And words float on deaf air as nature follows its chosen path Despite all our wishes the cold still bites As the children play in the snow Where the leaves once lived and lay The children don't know Vapors of love, frustration, and anger Emotions exposed, floating from our lips

Don't waste your breath on goodbyes I'll be alright, dry your eyes "But they're checking out as much as they're checking in how many friends have come and gone? How many friends have gone away?" I know it's hard to see them go But it's a part of life, just a chapter closed In a story that has no end "Yeah, but just look around, how many friends have come and gone? How many friends have gone away?" I know I'll see you again Behind a golden curtain that will never close Wrapped in light draped in the Savior's robes The angels will join in song of the one who set us free Just look around There's not a single tear in these eyes

Your words are broken glass On bleeding feet I walk A coat that's never warm And the chill still fills my lungs If you want to leave you don't have to ask I never owned you Your heart is made of gold And everybody knows that I'm the one who's wrong here And I won't let you go If you want to leave you don't have to stay I never owned you

Who is the one you run to when your legs just give out? Who is the one who tucks you in and tells you it'll all work out? Who is the one who kisses your face while the actors do their thing on the silver screen? It should be you and me but I'm left out in the cold When will you learn you're beautiful just the way you were And all these changes and rearranging your life, its not helping you But I've got a plan to make you see

about

The Parade Schedule Louisville, Kentucky

"Matt Kinder's sepia-folk style sets him apart from a lot of his contemporaries and his songwriting constantly captures loss, love, duty, and honor like few can. The Parade Schedule makes beautiful music that will stick with you like a familiar memory."
-Backseat Sandbar

"A brand of lo-fi folk that feels as gruff, dusty, heart-worn and honest as the best American literature".
-Wake the Deaf
