Melt

Burn before you melt away,
the Southern heat will come with daylight and
uncover all the dirt of my old ways.

You'll be gone by morning so,
leave no harm or hurt undone.
Hold nothing back; I'll only break with dawn.

Only darkness lies beneath
the broken flow of frozen sheets
and this town just gets darker with the dawn.

Leave no harm or hurt undone.
Indelicate, freeze me for fun
'Cause the blood and grass you cling to still will
hold me down and root me here for far too long.

Leave me cold,
just leave me, dear,
all alone
in my own fears.

Leave no harm or hurt undone;
leave me anything but numb.
