Roar - Valley Forge Winter Lyrics

Three houses blew up out in Bethlehem
The cause is pending investigation
And I'm laid off until I don't know when
If we pass the test we'll be digging again

Our car broke down nine times this year
But we'll get a new one next June, dear
They say that today we should all celebrate
We've got some time off but it ain't no holiday

So, let's gather 'round
And we'll burn the forge down
If we save up all the embers
We can make it through December

You're the jewel of this current
That splits these mountains right in two
I'm gonna make you the queen of my homeland
Where the inland seas greet the dunes
This was our year and I knew it for sure
Which just goes to show I know nothing at all
Our hard luck sometimes seems funny
But we'll get us that Saginaw money
On a scam and a prayer

So, let's gather 'round
And we'll burn the forge down
If we save up all the embers
We can make it through December

And I've self-medicated
But it's always predicated
Upon the world placed in my hands
The weight was always more than I could stand
When I needed to get wet
This town went dry

Our landlady sold me out
To claim the bounty placed on my head
That bitch thinks she's got one up on me
But she don't know I'd rather be dead
Than see her win, yes I would
So I stare at these white woods
Through the bars placed 'round our bed
You're the only thing that keeps me
From painting that canvas red

So, let's gather 'round
And we'll burn the forge down
If we save up all the embers
We can make it through December
Oh, let's gather 'round
And we'll burn the forge down
If we save up all the embers
Cuz this winter never ends
