"down in"
You fall on wintry screams,
believable again to dreams,
reaching inside your criminal hands,
thrills of your insatiable white wintry water.
Fall on wintry scenes,
unbelievable it may seem,
goals to be outwardly you,
onto the water,
falling inside,
rushing screaming,
impossible,
to see far,
far off now,
fall in down,
to the end...
Float to the bottom,
you will see it too,
in the white wintry water,
of midnight to hear her cries,
your love to be in the haze,
of the white wintry water,
as you wonder,
more is the reason why,
as you drink it now,
unbelievable as it seems,
drink it down,
drink the white wintry water.
