Winter feigned a deathly kiss but
We went somehow, my
Beloved and betrothed and
We begged for a stormier season yet
Snowdrifts and snowfalls covered the
Windowpanes of our houses and the
Blazing sun in our eyes it
Blinked and smiled and mocked us
We saw comedians and shrieked then
Gazed at the mountains of Old North and
Lay silent
In the cities we bled for
Brutal fucken riot police and
Cheered for empty bleak nihilists
Until everything lost meaning and
All and all and
Colours faded to grey and
Winter held her sway
But we'll go on somehow my
Beloved and betrothed and I to
Chime to the idealistic bell
Traumatize our share of archangels
Strike the untimely seventh hour
'Till mornings break white and yellow
'Till forbidden and forgotten fade and
Dead dreamers bind us no more we
Will go bright and shriven and free
My beloved and I
