A lyric

When I wrote this it was a song lyric, something kind of folk-punk maybe. But I can't play any instruments or compose so it lives on as a fragment here.
A toast to the year
I never thought I’d make it through
I thew my arms around a body
Who didn’t make it too
And we can give up ghosts
Or wander off
And cry ourselves to sleep
Or we can strike up chords
And dance for warmth
And raise dust beneath our feet
I guess the winter has its lessons too
Like love and joy are work
So I’ll plant flowers where I’m able
Before I plant me in the dirt
