see there its crushing the final impression
 the stains on the paper
 where words fell like water unearth all the changes that never did matter
 i think its beginning to freeze here
 caught in the rage and the fire of things all the brightness that burns me
 im fumbling through like a child in the dark when the nakedness comes i am
 shocked by the colour
 the glorious weight of your skin
 comes alive
 and i never thought we'd make it back so soon
 might be nice but i knew
 you'd be your own destroyer
 comes a time
 and i always thought i'd make it up to you
 here please forgive me how could we escape all the bitterness piled upon bitterness
 held in the face of the things that i don't understand intellectualize over and over
 this helplessness suits us its funny how quiet it has slipped to our corners
 and worn all our edges away you are watching breathing and baiting
 wanting and warming and cautiously waiting for some simple signal
 to creep cross your conscience
 uncover redemption and oh did i mention
 i carried you down to the St. Lawrence river
 the banks running dirty
 the waters beginning to freeze here
 solid by morning and i'll freeze here
 winter by morning
 comes a lie
 and i never thought you'd get me back so soon
 might be nice but its only if my own destroyer
 comes alive
 and i always knew i'd make it up to you
 i saw on your face such a curious grin as i let go your hand i was
 desperate to hold you again
 but you're sinking to deep in the water outsmarted myself and so easily
 gave up what i wanted
 solid by morning
 what i wanted
 winter by morning
 comes alive
 and i never thought you'd make it up so soon
 might be nice
 but i always knew you're my destroyer
 comes a time
 and i always thought i'd make it up to you
 solid by morning
 and i'll freeze here
 winter by morning
