it was cold, I could see my breath we spoke in whispers, hiding lies in the clouds we left you had a coat, it was red not a flake on the ground, but a flurry in my head I saw you spill a lake that covered his grave, a willow weeping lullabies above his name are you okay? is there something I could say? I saw you change and take a different shape I watched you fade into another shade of gray I saw you spill a lake that covered his grave, a willow weeping lullabies above his name are you the same? is there someone I could be? would you rather be me? am I someone you'd rather be?

I don't know what's up or down anymore when you're around I guess I'm just not paying attention to anything else what do you want from me to make you less unhappy? I'd give you everything but I don't think that's enough right now another night sleeping with you right next to me but we don't lay close anymore what do you want from me to make you less unhappy? I'd give you everything but I don't think that's enough right now are you happy?

dismal except in dreams, so sink in a dormant state dreams of a sky less gray, wake up to the slow decay in my daydreams, I don't feel anything let me stay please, numb, and at peace in my sleep I can speak, words come out easily everything's better in a dream let me stay numb, and at peace I even have a hard time writing these days I can't put the pen down and leave anything with meaning my head's always spinning, but I'm alive in my dreams numb, and at peace
