Permafrost letra

The permafrost is widening the fractures in our stone
A slow geological decay we should have known
You trace the tectonic faults left upon my spine
Measuring the exact distance of your line to mine
We became a landscape hardened by the zero-degree air
Two frozen monuments pretending not to care

I read your anatomy like an ancient map of clay
Watching the cartilage of our devotion wear away
We didn't collapse in a sudden tectonic roar
We just eroded quietly from the ceiling to the floor
Now the mineral deposits are filling up my chest
Leaving a heavy stone where the heartbeat used to rest

And the cold isn't an absence of the summer Sun
It's the kinetic friction of everything we've done

And the frost isn't a blanket covering the ground
It's the absolute silence when we look around

We are separate islands in a freezing, bitter sea
Drowning in the physics of who we used to be
Beneath the permafrost, the ancient rivers freeze
We are just autumn leaves clinging to the naked trees
Look at the avalanche of everything we saved
Buried in the permafrost of promises we made

The Mercury is dropping in the chambers of our throat
We lost the vocabulary of the final note

If we melt the ice, will there be anything alive?
Or did we freeze the only parts that could survive?
The temperature is absolute, the winter has design
And you are no longer mine
No, you are no longer mine

We are separate islands in a freezing, bitter sea
Drowning in the physics of who we used to be
Beneath the permafrost, the ancient rivers freeze
We are just autumn leaves clinging to the naked trees
Look at the avalanche of everything we saved
Buried in the permafrost of promises we made
