winter kills summer kills winter

we made you forget
and that was the best we could do
we could have torn your limbs off
and let you cry blood in the sun
but you know us better than that
you know we would never hurt you
you know we would never make you happy
you know we want to bring you down

we were torn between the two of you
and we had to choose
we had to make every decision sit and stand
and hold up against the water you flooded
our mind with every possible anything
now we can't see through it
now we don't exist

just to take you up in the rain again
the beautiful day shines on
we prey again
at night in the front of the car
we say things again
we love you again
all the things we possibly built up to bring you down
all in reality
the dream is forever
and we can't dream of anything possible
because it's over

i attempted the picture with every colour
and the colours all ran into blue
i made it for you
and you made it for me
and now when i look at it
everything's inbetween
