This song is about my experience destroying a relationship. While It happened, I seemed unable to prevent the systematic slaughter of my own heart. It was like it was made to be broken. Regret is the main emotion of this song.

lyrics
The snow was melting and the spring was on its way
My heart was opening and the wind blew out the grey
And in your dark eyes was everything I ever wanted
When you laughed or sighed it was like those eyes were also haunted
With the promise of love and the pleasures of a new day
Laughter and whispers of an easy game we both could play
It was a good time for breaking glass hearts into puzzles
Solving riddles and rhymes and dancing carefree through the puddles
It was the right line to tell you you were all I needed
The right time to sow the love we both had seeded
The leaves were turning brown and the winter was on its way
My heart was self destructing and the wind blew in the grey
And in your dark eyes still was everything I wanted
But somehow things had changed, I'd become the ghost that never haunted
With the promise of love or the pleasures of a new day
Laughter or whispers of an easy game we both could play
It was a good time for breaking glass hearts into puzzles
Solving riddles and rhymes and dancing carefree through the puddles
It was the right line to tell you you were all I needed
The right time to sow the love we both had seeded
