waiting for spring to open her arms to me takes up all my time, my mind is a single barrel gun with only one shot to fire at a thousand targets, all of which I could miss welcome back on the scene, intruder welcome back in my dreams, assailant here is your natural home in my heart here is your rightful piece of my brain I loved dividing myself for you, whole I had more strength than I knew what to do with I loathed dividing myself for you but when you asked me to, I did it again I know spring tastes of warmth but I forget warmth tastes of you I found myself in winter, but who wants to be a single-snowflake-being, born of darkness and chill I'm waiting for spring to open her arms to me layers of skin melting away afraid of what I'll be when there's nothing left but bone

Strategic Amnesia
waiting for spring to open her arms to me takes up all my time, my mind is a single barrel gun with only one shot to fire at a thousand targets, all of which I could miss welcome back on the scene, intruder welcome back in my dreams, assailant here is your natural home in my heart here is your rightful piece of my brain I loved dividing myself for you, whole I had more strength than I knew what to do with I loathed dividing myself for you but when you asked me to, I did it again I know spring tastes of warmth but I forget warmth tastes of you I found myself in winter, but who wants to be a single-snowflake-being, born of darkness and chill I'm waiting for spring to open her arms to me layers of skin melting away afraid of what I'll be when there's nothing left but bone
