|
I fashioned this ribbon from my own velvet tears. |
|
I melted these flowers just to make you a ring. |
|
Adorned with this madness, you scream in the dark. |
|
Perhaps it is this then that sets us apart. |
|
Your beauty was potent, I choke at the thought. |
|
Your hair streams from ivy, your eyes, crystalline stars. |
|
Your beautiful nightmares, you see them as art. |
|
Perhaps it is this then that sets us apart. |
|
Tied up my veins for that bow in your hair. |
|
And I took blame for pain that was already there. |
|
But when you reach the last stretch you crawl back to the start. |
|
Perhaps it is this then that sets us apart. |
|
Can you feel? |
|
Do you know the shallow ground that holds that beautiful piece of your heart, |
|
That I never got to kiss? And now all I do is miss, |
|
Those things that set us apart. |
