Slipping Off Avalanching Slopes

We are buried in dreams We are living hopes Slipping off avalanching slopes We are leaving tentative steps We are whispering cautions echoes We've uncovered cut gems not yet polished We are memories with broken collar bones We are bricks and mortar We are submerging boulders We are grains of sand We are eggshells crushed by foes and friends We are buried in dreams We are living hopes Slipping off avalanching slopes We are leaving tentative steps We are whispering cautions echoes But all I know is I don't want to live without you All I know is I don't want to live or die without you We are atoms that must ultimately collide We are embryos in a clinical petri dish dreaming of love We've uncovered cut gems not yet polished But I've got multiple scares We are eggshells crushed by foes and friends We are buried in dreams We are living hopes Slipping off avalanching slopes We are leaving tentative steps We are whispering cautions echoes But all I know is I don't want to go on without you All I know is I don't want to live or die without you We are atoms that must ultimately collide Please, please love, take my hand. Love, we are bricks and mortar We are submerging boulders We are grains of sand We are living hopes Slipping off avalanching slopes We are leaving tentative steps We are whispering cautions echoes We've uncovered cut gems not yet polished We are memories with broken collar bones We are bricks and mortar We are submerging boulders We are grains of sand We are eggshells crushed by foes and friends Love, let's not hesitate, darling, kiss me tonight.
