The snow began to melt when I was told to just SMiLe The clouds turned gray when tongues around me began to curse The doves flew from view when hate turned to cuts on my skin The lamb disappeared when my father left and I laughed The daisies wilted when my church preached that I'd be going to hell
The soggy ground became normal when I starved for beauty Storms rolled in when I had my heart broken The crows circled when pain turned to a rope around my neck The wolves snarled when he wanted it and I couldn't form the word no The thorns grew in when alcohol became my escape
The last of my innocence It's a sliver of a moon in a starless sky I fear the day I'm consumed by it and lose my way
