Frost

The frost of silence, grows brittle in our bones
Wallpaper flakes and dust
Collects on us
Like so much snow

We've come to rely, on survival instincts
Do what we need to do to get by
Like two birds
Who forgot they could fly

You've grown so distant, while I just turned away
Easier to take one side
Than to turn
Another page

When did the heat go west
And dress the sunset
When did we break down
Down

Give it up
And tell me you'll always burn
I'll burn for you
The night's on fire
Magnesium wire
