how can it start so innocent and turn out so malevolent
i didn't mean to fall in love; i fell so hard i lost my mind

we walked through the snow, we didn't take it too slow
we held our hands all over each other and smiled
gleefully like we couldn't stop
like i think right now i'm truly happy

the first date love and the shock's worn off
but maybe not as i see you leaning perfectly
against the wall perfectly waiting
to perfectly fall...

in love with me? just maybe you see beauty
in this tangled mess of all things awful
i still feel the same way i felt in the snow
your hand reaching out for me
and meeting you halfway

it's a new rite everyday
i weave through bodies to find you in the empty hallway

this beginning
sure feels like a happy ending
