Crush - The Birthday Massacre

Delicate like an infant

So relative, if you see through me

Jealousy a persistent whisper

A gentle wind through a hollow tree

Who are we, adrift and naked?

You hold my breath.

I save you a seat

Fantasy of a quiet separation

A double edge on the devil’s seam

We rise, then we dissolve

It’s a deep black crush

It’s a pale blue love

And we know what we’ve become

It’s a pale blue love

It’s a deep black crush

A new world oddity meets the commoner

Impulse, white blood, so high, too soft

Try to meet halfway, now we’re up against a stone wall

We crash, twin fire, blue ash, pink smoke

Spirals in decline, one tied against the other

Impulse, white blood, so high, too soft

Dissolving in the sky, swallowed in time

We crash, twin fire, blue ash, pink smoke

Soft to tell in an instant, fleeting

Put to rest in the deep blue sea

Separate in the dark white winter

Melted back with a hollow plea

What are we but a storm of sorrow?

Broken eyes and a mouth of bone

Feel your heart beating slow like thunder

Bleeding out through the fire and stone

We rise, then we dissolve

It’s a deep black crush

It’s a pale blue love

And we know what we’ve become

It’s a pale blue love

It’s a deep black crush

A new world oddity meets the commoner

Impulse, white blood, so high, too soft

Try to meet halfway, now we’re up against a stone wall

We crash, twin fire, blue ash, pink smoke

Spirals in decline, one tied against the other

Impulse, white blood, so high, too soft

Dissolving in the sky, swallowed in time

We crash, twin fire, blue ash, pink smoke
