I sit beneath the stars. my breath turns cold. 

I search for belonging, but only find this longing

Deep in my chest, I'm not sure what for

This feeling is always there, even in my darkest days 

It never goes away. it never goes away. 


I implore my heart to find the source

But no matter what, it never tells 

I wonder and wonder, for half the days 

For something, anything, to give up this mystery 

Of what lies underneath.

It never goes away. It never goes away. 


The winter air is cold against my skin 

Somehow i'm still searching for warmth 

I thought this, this I could escape

Yet i'm always so cold; so cold, so cold 


But as the days turn greener, my spark grows sheener

I thought this i'd never fuse, but somehow, someway

It came in a natural way 

I'm grateful to my God for making me this way 

Finally, or for now, anyway

It went away, it went away


The cool winter air speaks secrets to the stars 

About my longing, for what i'm not sure

A secret that i'm not aware

The winter air spills my tears, to the clouds up above 

And when morning comes, it will pour

down come my fears

and now I know, I know


I now feel refreshed, from that sorrow from before 

in that night, I was guided

from those whispers of winter air, to the stars

and through the clouds they came 


i'm so glad that now

now I can rest, upon the greener grass

in which I will grow 

I will sprout, I will sprout


like a warm summers day, I will shimmer in growth 

my new guise will sure be fresh 

like the sweet berries I had picked this morn 

I shall be my newborn self

out with the old, in with the new 

I shall die again, but this form will foreshadow

for in the future I will come anew 

I will sprout, I will sprout
