lyrics

this is where i broke down when you told me you would never leave
this is where you burned the holes through when you bared yr soul to me
this is where we cried when we died
holding hands with granite tightness
and that’s where we both did turn to stone

this is where we melted both our candles to a blade of one
this is where we took the pictures
that vanished with the setting sun
this was when we said you bastard
if you leave i’ll just die faster
let’s try to last long in unison

all the fabrics will fly and well be all there but very gone
and every tongue will lie awaiting truly all
well return in corpsing roses
inter-tangled in the Uncle Tree
a dance beyond a flame to kiss to free

this is where i asked you are you sure
this is where i wondered what phase you’re on
this is where i questioned the whole continuum
you couldn’t possibly break it
are you really that determined to cast that spell

all yr blankets will sail with yr coils wailin hail mary
and every thrust will fire waves through the holy thaw
well twist in singing
the vines of an ember purity ring
dance of a fallen pollen angel
and other silly things
