The Ice of Flowers

from Black Winters by Captain Vulpine!

lyrics

I sit up in my bed, it's christmas eve
I rub my bruises and wash my teeth
Brush my hair behind my ears and
Wash away those last dried tears

I hear a grumbling upstairs
He's stomping his feet and he's yelling and swearing
I check my chains in silence
I'm not ready for this violence

But love, it's a funny thing
That's why he makes me squirm and scream
It's a funny thing
And when I faint I know,
When it's all over
I can fall into my dreams.


I wake up on the floor it's Christmas morning
It's snowing outside and I can hear him snoring
Both my legs are broken and I'm tied up with rope again

I hope there's no heaven or hell,
Because I'm there now
I know that my mother was wrong
When she said be strong

But love, it's a funny thing
That's why he makes me squirm and scream

I hope I never hope again, as long as I live

I just want to fall into my dreams
