with a mouth full of stars

all the colours are crackling, the leaves are alive
with a note from your heart i keep written inside
frozen air surrounds your eyes
as you speak fountains collide

with a mouth full of stars i trip over my feet
you've blown me away, i can hardly speak
stolen my silence, scattered my peace
i'm lost in the dark, mislaid my spark

memories of you fading into the past
to keep you inside freeze your kiss so it lasts
in the shadow of your light
i live my days like they were nights

all the space that you need and the silence you plead
i've thrown them away cause your signs i can't read
forgotten thrills in the sudden chills
frozen air surrounds your eyes
