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.
