Melting Snow

You knew when it's time to hurt me And when to belie and dress me like I'm your Gothic Queen And I have idealized you Oh, all that hot and cold quickly getting old But still I would cling to my fever dream You were my Event Horizon A black hole I couldn't touch no matter how hard I tried I knew when it's time to drown And forget myself. Was the darkness mine Or did it come from you? I can't draw a line I pushed through pain and jealousy It got worse the more I tried to stay A dead love's shadow hung helplessly The snow melted washing it away I knew that it would be over But pheromones ruled the nights and ripped holes in every day A tentative, hedonistic pact Of a nihilist with a dark allure And his naive and boy-crazy paramour Our cigarettes burned through hours And ashtrays of failing hopes were buried until the dawn I felt like you're always gone And I'm on my own. Was the darkness mine? Yours was soaked in wine. What a decadent rhyme I pushed through pain and jealousy It got worse the more I tried to stay A dead love's shadow hung helplessly The snow melted washing it away The snowflakes have danced around us It seems like it's been a thousand years Or a million years ago Long gone is the heavy darkness An infinite light has found its way And everything else don't really mean a thing It don't, it don't Really mean a thing I pushed through pain and jealousy It got worse the more I tried to stay A dead love's shadow hung helplessly The snow melted washing it away It all melted away Away, away It all melted away Away, away
