February

The trouble with your sleight of hand was when I started to bloom
Removing the burden to change as a person just to please you
I visit by night with the news of a fire
The life we built of ice is now water
Your trail was cold and no one could find me
I had drowned in the depths of February

Are you sure that it's alright
Are you really sure

I spoke to you about all of the ways that water will alter its shape
You dive right in and you hesitate
You melt the ice and evaporate
(Testing out the waters in a room with just a window
Observing a lake that you've never mentioned before)
Preparing a dinner of bread broth and wine
I break the silence with what's on my mind
I tread the depths of your honesty
I thought you were shallow and not this deep
(Pleading for your innocence you pour a cup of water
But when I try to take a sip
It's nothing but vapor)
I stand my ground while you think about
How the water will rise when the dam gives out
I turn my back and you're on the attack
In the wake of your anger I finally ask

Are you sure that it's alright
Are you really sure

You drag me by my hands and storm out the door
Heading to the lakeshore frozen by the winter
I'm bound by chains as we get to the docks
You anchor my throat and throw me off
I crack through the ice as you hideaway
I'll drown with the weight of February

Are you sure that it's alright
Are you really sure

Water fills my lungs as I struggle below the ice
I'm starting to drown and losing track of the surface
There's no way to escape the descent to my watery grave
Once I hit the bottom I look around to see
Several skeletons with the same fate as me
All bound in the chains of the love you never gave
Singing
Are you sure that it's alright
Are you really sure
Because I'm not okay anymore
