The House
Love's Descent: A Haunting Tale of Invisible Bonds
Lyrics
She drops an ice-cube in her drink
She adds an ice-cube to her drink
I pour mine into the sink
I discard mine by pouring it in the sink
She'd like to burn a hole right through me
She desires to deeply affect or hurt me
The way she stares so intently
Her intense gaze is striking
This must be love
These actions might signify love
Both of us have fallen
Both of us have fallen emotionally
She slaps the left side of my face
She hits the left side of my face
Now I've been put back in my place
Now I'm reminded of my place
I'm supposed to be disgraced
I'm expected to feel shame or humiliation
But it feels like TV
But it feels detached like watching TV
Is this really me
Questioning if this behavior aligns with who I am
When did I lose my body
When did I lose connection with my physical self?
She fills a pillowcase with pills and perfume
She packs a pillowcase with pills and perfume
She takes her clothes out of our room
She removes her belongings from our shared space
She breaks everything she sees
She destructively breaks things within her sight
Everything she can see
Breaking everything she can lay her eyes on
That just leaves me
Leaving only me behind
For I've become invisible
I feel invisible or unnoticed
She starts the car and drops over the hill
She starts the car and drives away
Now the house is awfully still
Now the house is eerily quiet
The house is awful and still
The home is terrible and motionless
But if I ask the walls to fall they will
I have the power to bring the walls down with a request
And soon winter will arrive
Winter is approaching soon
And the snow will find me hiding
I'll be concealed or sheltered by the snow
