lyrics

On a frozen hill, a wintry gray
Where the weather never tends to see my way
There’s a house that bears an empty green
Where I lost my lover shouting in a dream

It seems she didn’t understand
That some things stay accordingly as planned
Though the days of calm would come, I said
Apparently I’d sometimes be misled

On a frozen hill, a wintry gray
I wondered if you’d ever pass my way
In that house that bears an empty green
Lives the saddest looking man you’d ever seen

I spoke about the Evergreens, and all that they had done
How they helped my dying dreams to flower
Let me pull the reigns, slow down the pace—I can’t always run
I know a bit about light, love, and power

On a frozen hill, a wintry gray
Where the weather never tends to see my way
There’s a house that bears an empty green
Where I lost my lover shouting in a dream

I spoke about the Evergreens, all that they had done
How they helped my dying dreams to flower
And the days of calm have come at last to warm my certain smiles
Those feelings all the while...

So now I walk a different path, my shoes no longer shine
And I don’t care if I never use a razor
And should you look down through your weary years
And ask, have they been kind?

What’s your state of mind?
What’s your state of mind?
What’s your state of mind?

What’s your state of mind!
