Prescription Snow - Matt Buetow

Prescription Snow-Matt Buetow
We cannot live like we’re pretending
with certain things we both should know
But each scene always seemed so perfect
under the cover of a prescription snow
So give your veins all that they can handle
until some beauty comes along
But if it’s an ending that you’re seeking
then it’s a coffin sized to the soil’s hole
I can live like a fish in a fountain
I can find some walls to roam
But if each kiss is burning more than I am growing
I cannot tell, then I can’t tell you,
I cannot tell you what you want to know
It’s an addiction of the worst kind,
trying to love what will grow old
And fade away just like the sunshine
to shed it’s light on other worlds
So don’t tell me sugar ain’t my birthright,
I wanna taste the candied soul
And go back to when we sang till dawn’s light swinging
youth’s side of that double-edged sword
But what if I blink and I light the candle at both ends
Would you be the first to go
And if each kiss is burning more than I am growing
I cannot tell, then I can’t tell you,
I cannot tell you what you want to know
