Gold Flakes When I’m Alone

This is a song I wrote in the winter of 2010. Here are two versions, one with an electric guitar and one with a nylon acoustic guitar.

 

snow fall snow fall,
whereever you go,
whatever road you might choose,
tonight you’ll be inside of,

snow fall,
in whatever tree you might climb,
there’ll be no monkeys around,
they all left the town,

snow fall snow fall,
just like her hair,
is nowhere to be seen,
it’s a memory,

snow fall snow fall,
is nowhere around,
there’s nothing outside the window,
it’s a rotten cave inside of,

my head, my head,
it’s filthy and dark,
it’s getting old, it’s getting cold, it’s getting damp,
just like gold flakes
