For so long, I have felt nothing but frigid hatred clouding my mind. But now I'm free; never again will my father posses me. My heart flutters as I see the clock. Today, for the first time in a long time, I will see Ichijo.
Feel the twilight glow in the snow
And here you are, smiling at me like you can't feel the cold
He waits outside for me. There, in the field, he stands as snow falls around him. The flakes cling to him, but he doesn't mind. I can feel the warmth of Ichijo's smile when he sees me coming.
And then we walk
There's no need to say a word
We walk through the snow, secretly holding each other's hand. I feel drawn to him, but does Ichijo feel the same way about me? I'm not able to ask; he already knows.
With no other sound but the gentle sigh of the icy exhale
My cheeks flush as he whispers in my ear, "Let's pretend we are the only ones here. Imagine being like this every day."
The world looks good dead. It looks so good dead, you said.
It looks so good dead. It looks so good dead instead.
"If only." I honestly answer. The winter chill is sinking through my clothes, making me shiver. But a set of comforting arms wrap around me.
Even though your body was cold, when I embraced you I swear I've never felt something so warm.
As he holds me so close, I can feel the steady beat of his heart. Now, I know what I have to do. "Ichijo, what would you have done if Rido had killed me?"
The world looks good dead. It looks so good dead, you said.
The world looks so good dead. It looks so good dead instead.
Turning to face him, I see my answer; a tear rolling down his cheek. His bangs fall into his eyes, "Shiki, please don't make me think of that! I did almost lose you; don't make me relive it."
A slow impulse, my lips are blue
I kiss to feel the calm in you
It's strange I'm sure, but I prefer the lifelessness of the world.
"Don't cry, Ichijo." I kiss his tears away, "I'm never going to leave you." He looks deep into my eyes; determination shining in his. "I'll never let you leave me." his words brushed against my lips as we kissed.
A slow impulse, my lips are blue
I kiss to feel the calm in you
It's strange I'm sure, but I prefer the lifelessness of the world.
There was no fight for dominance with our kiss, only pure love and passion. I could kick myself for not telling Ichijo about my feelings sooner. He was always so understanding and compassionate.
I love you, it's all that's true
I want together to grow old
"Shiki, do you want to be together forever?" Ichijo's features are unusually serious. I shake my head right away. He smiles, "Well, we could form a blood bond. It is said that it is unbreakable."
You know that we're not perfect but I think together we'll come close
Words seemed impossible to speak, so I answered him by burying my face in his neck. He gasps as I lick and tease the soft skin before finally biting into it. Blood flows into my mouth; tasting of crimson longing and the sweetest dream.
It's hard to accept that things will change and that's for sure
Echoing my movements, Ichijo gently bites into my neck. We drink from each other; exchanging the most important thing you could give your vampire lover.
If we make it, we'll look back and know we'll always have winter
Lost in bliss, we lay together under a blanket of snow. Were we cold? No, we had each other to keep us warm.
The world looks good dead. It looks so good dead, you said.
The world looks so good dead. It looks so good dead instead.
