I'm hiding underneath all my blankets

I hope they'll protect me tonight

From the deafening burn of failure and truth

I try to scare away the fear dancing behind my eyes

But I'm shaking with desperation to run

I want to run outside into the cold darkness

And scream for you until the sky shatters

I beg my memory to lie to me

And tell me our love hasn't bled to death

The knife of fault glances at you

Then buries itself deep inside me

Relief fills my mouth instead of air

Maybe now I am finally being allowed to forget
