Burn

I didn't mean it to be this dark,
It just happens sometimes.

Featuring:
Fire,
Death,
And something I don't understand.

Who we are isn’t
Who we were,
But they’re all connected
And you’ll hang on every word
Like a matchstick,
Relief for just a second,
Then it’s ashes in the dark,
Loneliness invades,
A roaring blaze due to a
Single spark.

Stub it out in the ashtray
Of my life and anyways,
Along the way you’ll find
Another answer, changing slowly,
Burn across the atmosphere,
Why now? Why here?
Why did we try
To trace our own lies
In the first place?

Insanity, you may say,
But I’m all for a scarlet blaze,
Set my eyes on fire,
And we’re burning like an autumn leaf,
Too red for you to even try
To believe,
But it’s not like you ever noticed,
It’s not like you’d ever see.
