Collecting dust (on the road to defeat)
Your eyes like open windows,
I am the thief who jumps right in..
Steal all your thoughts and memories, keep them close to my chest..
close to my heart...
They said you're gone, but I know you're not.
You're always here, you never left...
I remember your bones, how they used to snap...
how you bled all over the floor....
but you're still here... you never left...
But...
No I am wrong...
your bones never snapped, nor was the blood yours...
It was mine....
A breeze blows the snow from my eyes..
And now I see...
I dreamt of you...
while I jumped off this mountain...
where we picknicked for the first time...
Now I see... thank you for letting me see...
I lie broken and bloodied on the snowy feet of the mountain...
And now my body, and my memories of you...
are collecting dust...
as snow slowy covers the scraps of my body..
but I know, you never left my side....
