Good Reasons to Freeze to Death

Lately, I've been wishing I could meet you again

Small cracks in my memories

Drain the life from these holes in my head

No eyes in my memories

And the devil that I know is a shimmer pinned to my wall

I witnessed a murder in the snow

And I saw steam rise from a still-weeping wound

Blood stained hands that looked like mine

I place a finger in my mouth and find it with my teeth

And I try to remember who and where I am

But everything that I think or see or speak

Reminds me of something that I've killеd

And I see my face in the reflеction of the blade and I whimper

I wish that I couldn't see you under all this white

I wish I could undo this

I think the wrong one died

A photo of you falls from the wall

And shakes me from this dream

Have you ever seen a memory die?

No, that's not right

No, It's not dead

No, It just grew teeth

I slice a finger trying to pick up its remains

Have you ever seen a memory draw blood?

Have you ever seen a memory draw blood?

And I'm still plagued by this vision

Even when I wake, I still see the coward

Who drinks from rusted cups and spits out all that's sweet

Pathetic creature would rather run

Than learn to lick his wounds

I pray that the frost gives way to hungry soil

And he becomes its feed

When all these frozen moments thaw

Will I know how to swim?

When all these frozen moments thaw

Will I learn how to swim?
