The Torch Bearer
I come to your class,you put your head up and I ask you again
to"come here"I even showed you the note in my hand
but you shook your head 'no' and said you wasn't coming
That's when my heart flooded like a drain that needs plumbing
I walked away with my head down,because down was my soul
Cast down by your rejection into a pit of the unknown
Throwing the flame that burns me now,you don't even care
You laugh at my ruin,you put gasoline on my flare
You made me what I am now,a monster you've created
So now you're destroying your creation,so lonely so hated
The bearer of my doom,the nightmares that I fear
The bearer of the torch that created the flames I wear
I thought you liked me but I know now that I was wrong
By the sound of your laughter like one of hell's songs
I cry tears of emptiness but that will never help
extinguish the combustion of emotions I have felt
That will never extinguish the fire in my soul and mind
The bearer of the torch throwing your flames to find
out how long it takes for them to swallow me up
and scorch me,blaze me until I've had enough
