Out upon the ice flats giant sheets are breaking up
And the mist forms blurry circles
From the bridge lights illuminating us
But I have fallen for a weaker line
A soft equation on a slow decline
A winter thaw has come to shake my mind
And if you truly understood what you tried to protect
You would come to realize that it's you who must accept
A little impermanence would be good for you
I remember thinking being hung up on you was bad
But knowing that I'm finally over it is twice as sad
And when I feel my lashes come together and pull apart
I wish I would've known that from the start
