Too Cold To Snow

your line was so dead

every time that i called it was a kick in the head

i tried to be calm

i swear to you baby you didn't know what you'd done

the moon shed its shell

some cresent effervescent light shivered and fell

to my feet, from the sky

i ask too many questions that get no reply

it's too cold to snow, i don't feel my hands

my blood is so slow in my veins

i'm too tired to cry

and the earth is so still

it's too cold to snow but i hope it will

prone on the floor

couldn't think any less, couldn't drink any more

sleep was a prize

i died a small death when i opened my eyes

did i cease to exist

from the moment we met or the moment we kissed

i dare you to agree

that if you treat me this way then you cannot you

cannot love me

now you're here in your shame

you're sorry and so on i'm glad that you came

i know just like you

that i will forgive you whatever you do

i know just as well

that you've caused me less pain than i've caused to

myself

with my glass to my lips

i'm thinking maybe maybe it doesn't get better than

this
