Oh sweet angel,
I'm in your arms again.
A cold, numb, desperate embrace.
"Don't let me go," you say again and again.
How can I let you go
When I'm trapped in your arms?
The ice seeps through,
Creeps over my walls.
They shatter to pieces,
Like fragments of sun.
Light turns to night;
Turns into dust.
You hold me closer;
Fly up above.
Don't let me go,
I'm too scared to fall.
"I'll never let you go."
Cold breath scratches my ear.
Nails in my ribs;
Snow in my lungs.
Lips of sapphire
Press onto mine.
Palm to my chest,
Shards in my flesh
Dig into my heart,
It stops beating.
