Sometimes I believe   (No one's even listening)   And I can only move in light   Memory is not so much a fluid as a capsule   Breaking without sound like months of ice   We met at midnight, the closest we could come to a new day   The whole world's weight melted with the snow   Leaving only we to reflect   The endless hope of spring   The endless spring of hope   Our hearts were the type that broke windows      Exchanging secrets as we slept   Unknowing we'd excel at all things which are held   While failing at those which are kept   We moved as apparitions through each nightmarish vision   And I woke up someone else   To whisper of joint decisions   Loud feet dance in the kitchen   Gloriously out of step   The creaking floorboards would ring   With all the strength and hope of spring   And I could hold you up in beams   I was helpless but to reflect   But now we only move in memory   In past tense      And I can feel my heart breaking like a capsule   Like silence, like dawn   And however late, all that spills out is light   We believed we could have danced all night   And we were half-right
