N/A

The silence, the chill, the death in the room grew stifling, and I felt the need to break it:
"Let me make you breakfast."

-

We passed the time watching our time pass,
A leaf to your lips to keep them guessing
Every now and again
Cold air in my lungs, we leap and we fall
Landing in the leaves from whence we came
Every now and again
Cold air in my lungs, hot smoke in yours

-

Knife to the bark
It's all cliche
Leaving your mark
Then fading away...

-

It's hard to stare in icy blues
And have them staring back at you
It's cold and dark and infinite
And still you drag me into it...

-

You'll see the light,
You'll come around
You'll fall fast
I'll be your ground

-

Light me up in the rain
Take a drag or two
Burn me out, I like the pain
It keeps me tied to you

-

I gathered myself up beneath the blankets. Knees to my chin, arms wrapped around them, head ducked, toes curled tight. Still the cold bit in - every damned time.

Just one warm night with you, and I fear I will not survive alone.

-

You have to understand, it's not the night that hurt me so;
it's the morning after that I couldn't bear
I've spend too much of my life flying close to the sun;
my wax wings melt off into the air

-

Diamond dust across her eyes
An abyss inside her smile
She's worth more than her ticket price
If you'll stick around a while

-

You make me feel like I could grow up to be twenty;
I'll get you back for this
