Then there is this another mark,
another drop of me,
for another year.

You have struck through everything,
only one to do so.

No matter how much I tried to push,
you didn't leave.
******* out everything that's in me.

You have been here so long,
I don't even remember the life without.

Even leaving scares me,
I have forgotten the world without.

And I'll leave you another mark,
next year when you will still be here.
Find me a place to hide.

When he comes back tonight,

Let him see an empty place,

Void of all the emotions  

that I had let him feel.

Let him look through all the crevices,

I will be long gone before he comes.

And when he leaves,

Burn this house down.

Let the fire consume all the stories with itself.

And when the snow falls tonight,
bury me in that grave I dug all these years.
The fire is extinguished
and I can't find anything to warm myself anymore.

All this time I have been sinking,
the ropes have gotten weak,
and I can't hang on no more.

and all these lullabies are calling me to sleep,
all these enchanting voices.

I will let myself fall through this,
just promise, you will bury me with the snow.
