Fiery Snowflake

I was buried in the corner of a cafe I don’t remember
Just another ghost pretending not to fade
Then you crossed the floor like something I had summoned from December
And suddenly the silence was a blade
You didn’t ask permission, didn’t wait for me to speak
You just sat there in the light and split my chest in two
Now every song I thought I’d buried starts to bleed
Because you looked at me like you already knew

I let you in my room where all my demons hang like paintings
You walked through the chaos like you’d always been the key
You touched the scars I wrote in chords and all my sacred faking
And you stayed—you didn’t run, you just breathed
I traced your spine like verses I was too afraid to finish
You let me fall apart inside your hands
Now every note I play is just a way to keep you with me
A religion I finally understand

I disappeared in you
We built the spring from winter’s end with nothing left to prove
So let me burn inside your cold, let me be your only truth
I came in quiet, now I’m screaming you

You came in like winter, left me burning for the spring
A fragile little snowflake with a fire underneath
I didn’t plan to let you in, I didn’t plan for anything
But now I wear your name inside my sleep
