Heart from Two Birds by Kirsty McGee

don't break my heart
it would be easy
you know it's too easy
to fall through the ice

what you can't touch
you cannot damage
and any fool can see
you would break my heart

there's ice for a reason
and though i can't say
if ever i'll trust you
to hold me that way

the cold of the season
has stolen away
all of the words
that i came here to say

the sun's in the west
and the moon's on the run
the pull of the earth
on my negligent heels

the taste of your breathing
still stiffens my tongue
but i'm so used to running
that i can't stay still for so long...
