The heat comes in distant shifts to fill up my room
|
It spills out of these ancient vents to meet the new cold
|
And I lay in my twisted sheets and stare out at the snow
|
Still thinking of the next few months, my cold and lifeless eyes
|
I've never felt so separate
|
And then there's you but that's so obvious
|
It's hopeless and I know this, that's why I can't dream
|
No desire or circumstance would keep this from me
|
One by one, to department stores
|
We walk through the aisles
|
In a forest of designer clothes, you touch me and smile
|
And for a moment I could want nothing
|
Your bright eyes burn through my exploding heart
|
And we stand as the shoppers pass us
|
And for once I can feel a touch complete
|
And I need to just be near you and fill these empty eyes
|
But you start turning as resistance pulls you from my cold and boring life
|
Let's make this easy and let time pass, as devotion dies,
|
The list goes on and on
|
I have waited and I will be waiting for the pain to cure the fear
|
