I'll drown the dark skies
So that the glorious sun
May once again reveal
The joy hiding under the clouds
The joy hiding under the veils
The joy hiding under the masks
-
I'll lock away the tears in jars
Bottle up those emotions
That drip from my words
Like those black spiders
You said were disgusting
I'm not disgusting
Not today
-
I'll hang the frowns right side up
By an invisible fishing wire
Just so my muscles may know
What it feels like for the first time
For our first time
-
Oh but the irony
Striking everyone down
Like ants under a thumb
Stuck with the misery
As if it was glued to their chest
And burrowed into the heart
-
You died
My darling your dead
Today their putting you under
Today the dirt will be muddy
On such a sunny day
This was our day
This is our day
Won't you listen
In your sleep
I'm living with you
Without you
This is what you wanted
This is all for you
-
Can I change the emotions
Of a blinded corpse
That was under the weather
Blinded by frozen tears
Along a frozen frown
With the frozen wire
Knotted like a scarf
But no scarf could warm you
Because I lowered the thermostat
