Calling tears from deep inside, oh, you’re so exquisite
And in the mirror, all midnight eyes
Oh, if I could remain, but it’s just a visit
All midnight eyes read “vacancy”
Twisted, twisting

To the lovely dancing lights, I begged, “May I cut in?”
But they never stopped playing “their song”
Of a joyous song they sing, I’ve heard whispers
On a freezing note, I resonate

Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end
Just like a memory, it twists me
Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end
Twist… twisting me

You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
Onto the melting boy, and melt away
You light as gently, you’re so cinematic
Bathed in your radiance, I melt

In the glitter, in the dark, sunk into velvet
Praying this will never end
In the shadow of a star, in static pallor
I realized I never began

Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end
Just like a memory, it twists me
Just like romantic verses, just like a joyous end
Twist… twisting me

You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
Onto the melting boy, and melt away
You light as gently, you’re so cinematic
Bathed in your radiance, I melt

All the colours upon leaving, all will turn to grey
All the colours upon leaving, all will turn to grey
(All grey) All the colours (All grey) upon leaving
(All grey) all will turn to grey
(All grey) All the colours (All grey) upon leaving
(All grey) all will turn to grey… grey… twisting me

You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
Onto the melting boy, and melt away
You light as gently, you’re so cinematic
Bathed in your radiance

You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
You land as lightly as the new snow, and melt away
You land as lightly as the new snow, cinematic
Bathed in your radiance, I melt
