Fire
Fire
the burning fire left carnage throughout your heart
yet you did not fear the end of the tunnel
like a righteous goddess you walked in the flames
fanning them in my direction so that i might burn
for you always wanted me to die by your hands
when love bred the deepest hate
and beneath the same affectionate moon you once kissed me
you would now stab me in the back with a knife
but cutting me to shreds won't cut the history we have
just as it cannot stop me from loving you til the end
i wanted this love to see us through the fire
but you wanted it to burn to the ground
but the end of all of this will spawn another beginning
and i know this even as i watch you slowly burn
laying on the side of the road in a ruined mess
the wounds are nothing i cant handle
because watching you burn is far harder to handle
knowing i cant do a damn thing to stop it
the chains of fate led us to this ultimate moment
just as they once led us to holding hands
death plays a little white piano next to your burning body
the final notes of your life are already passing
this isnt how it should have been because i should perish
not you oh not you when i loved you so deeply
yet as much as i loved you you surely did begin to hate me
a mere trifle in your world full of play things
so no matter how i wish to get to my feet and douse your flames
i can but only watch them devour your tender form
the burning fire left carnage throughout your heart
yet you did not fear the end of the tunnel
