Hyacinthine

See how the alchemist works–
Side by side, we're turned to gold
And the glow fades from what once did shine
Bright within our eyes
I'll hang my greatest treasure in a locket around my neck
Until the weight becomes too much for my shoulders

Your arms around me–, God, it's cold in bed
Chantilly lace in place of your skin
Your fears appeared as words
Will we stay like this forever?
Well my love, you surely will
You'll lay beside another with my silhouette
You'll hang your masterpieces in galleries, framed
Impressions of that world where you
Were lying next to me, curled hyacinthine
In silent reverie– I'll meet you there somehow
Please try to just believe
That to live authentically
Is not at all obscene, my love
Will we stay like this forever?
My love, we surely will
We'll lay beside another with our silhouettes
They'll hang your masterpieces in galleries, framed
Impressions of that world, where you–
No it's a key change
Okay, here we go
You were lying next to me, curled hyacinthine
I tried so hard to speak, but couldn't make a sound
Come find me in the leaves, beyond society's
Fears of being free
To love who we love
(Find me in between dreams and reality)
