|
Smells on the air |
|
See there it's crushing the final impression |
|
The stains on the paper |
|
Where words fell like water |
|
Unearth all the changes that never did matter |
|
I think it's beginning to freeze here |
|
Caught in the rage and the fire of things |
|
All the brightness that burns me |
|
I'm fumbling through like a child in the dark |
|
When the nakedness comes |
|
I am shocked by the colour the glorious weight of your skin |
|
Comes alive |
|
And i never thought we'd make it back so soon |
|
Might be nice |
|
But i knew you'd be your own destroyer |
|
Comes a time |
|
And i always thought i'd make it up to you |
|
Here please forgive me |
|
Could we escape all the bitterness piled upon bitterness |
|
Held in the face of the things that i don't understand |
|
Intellectualize over and over |
|
This helplessness suits us |
|
Funny how quiet has slipped to our corners |
|
Worn all our edges away |
|
You are watching breathing and baiting |
|
Wanting and warming and cautiously waiting |
|
For some simple signal to creep cross your conscience |
|
Uncover redemption and oh did i mention |
|
I carried you down to the st. lawrence river |
|
The banks running dirty the water's beginning to freeze here |
|
Solid by morning |
|
And i'll freeze here |
|
Winter by morning |
|
Comes a lie |
|
And i never thought you'd get me back so soon |
|
Might be nice |
|
But it's only if my own destroyer |
|
Comes alive |
|
And i always knew i'd make it up to you |
|
I saw on your face such a curious grin |
|
As i let go your hand |
|
I was desperate to hold you again |
|
But you're sinking so deep in the water |
|
Outsmarted myself and so easily gave up what i wanted |
|
Solid by morning |
|
What i wanted |
|
Winter by morning |
|
Comes alive |
|
And i never thought you'd make it up so soon |
|
Night be nice |
|
But i always knew you're my destroyer |
|
Comes a time |
|
And i always thought i'd make it up to you |
|
Solid by morning |
|
And i'll freeze here |
|
Winter by morning |
