Cover Me With Snow - Rebekka Bakken

I’m gonna lay this body down

cover me with snow

chill my burning flesh, it’s scolding

decency and pride

Cold war is over

opening my pores

the flame each pore is breathing in

is coming from my core

Sweet and gentle sleepiness

coming from the cold

Come back faithful punishment

cover me with snow

cover me with snow

I’m gonna lay this body down

cover me with snow

walk these hours barefoot

let the snowflakes be my gown

My fingers have no colors

crystals in my hair

I feel so beautiful

my thoughts have turned to stone

Sweet and gentle sleepiness

coming from the cold

Come back faithful punishment

cover me with snow

cover me with snow

It does for me what I could not

Even when I tried

It soothes my mind and leaves behind

all the times I’ve lied

I’m gonna lay this body down

Cover me with snow

Fall asleep with crystals

falling silent from above
