Lyrics

Snowflake

snowflake, the only one they make
the special little detail
the only one to take
you feel lost, you're just floating like you're soft
gentle as a meadow
but harder than a petal falling off

melt, melt, melt my body
melt, melt, melt my body
melt, melt, melt my body
melt, melt, melt my body

it's gonna be a reckoning
it's gonna cover everything
you're gonna wanna wait and see
you don't want to take it in
you just want to break it in
it's gonna be the break you need

you can do anything you want
born into this privilege
burning down the village and
who can stop a little smoke?
you said it's just a joke
and you're whiter than a snowman

melt, melt, melt my body
melt, melt my body
melt, melt, melt my body
melt, melt my body

you're a snowflake, the only one they make
the special little detail
the only one to take

it's gonna be a reckoning
it's gonna cover everything
you're gonna wanna wait and see
you don't want to take it in
you just want to break it in
it's gonna be the break you need

give it to me now
give it to me now
give it to me now
