"Winterlong" is a song from The Smashing Pumpkins's B-side compilation album, Judas O. Although it appeared on the Adore Demos II bootleg, it is considered a Machina-era song.
It slated to appear on the Machina reissue, with Corgan saying a digital home demo will be used with some added overdubs.[1]
Lyrics[edit | edit source]
and if i fall into you all
will my rain cease and dissolve
some come to harm, others to grace
so let my friends fly under these wings
we're giving it up to the sun
we're giving it up to the moon
we're giving it up to the earth
giving it up from our room
know when there's nowhere to run
know when there's not much to lose
sometimes it seems so long
since you had a chance to refuse
we built a fire
winterlong
transform to iron
winterlong
i was the first one
i was the last one to be strong
and if i fall into you all
will the silence shatter and stall
some feel movement, others stand still
so let the moment become my will
we're giving it up to the sun
we're giving it up to the moon
we're giving it up to the earth
giving it up from our rooms
know when there's nowhere to run
know when there's not much to lose
so why does it take so long
to find out who is who
we built a fire
winterlong
transform to iron
winterlong
i was the first one
i was the last one to be strong
we're giving it up to the sun
giving it up to the moon
we're giving it up the the earth
giving it up from your room
we're giving it up to the sun
giving it up to the moon
