by the end of the summer you were so alive and your essence seductive as hope before it died so we fell into winter what a senseless fall it was all i could do to feel the cold at all
and your instincts die all cramped up inside just like barely breathing butterflies and it split the sky when her scent was mine now you lose yourself as time goes by
kept her heartbeat under my thumb as i drank her in all the longing smeared like embers on her skin thought you'd made an impression but i pushed your hand away just another possession destined to decay
and your instincts die all cramped up inside just like barely breathing butterflies and it split the sky when her scent was mine now we lose ourselves as time goes by
