She bleached her hair that winter
and bought only white clothes
said it brought her closerto the angels inside her
Down by the frozen lake we sat quiet for an hour
we were so scared so cold our skins were turning blue

Down by the frozen lake we lost our innocence
inch by inch we fell down by
The frozen lake

She grabbed the kitchen knife
we lifted from the market
said ‘this is really me this is absolutely true’
Down by the frozen lake she slit her wrist and kissed me
whispered ‘always remember’ all her red on all the white

Down by the frozen lake we lost our innocence
inch by inch we fell down by
The frozen lake
