Left in the ashes,
Of what I once believed was true.
A fire once burned brightly,
But it faded away with you.
Won't you burn in someone elses flames?
For what once seemed oh so real.
Stop playing your childish games,
Confusing what I feel.
Burning you away,
Could never ease the pain,
My tears put out the fire,
The ashes of my liar.
Oh I once loved you,
Don't ever doubt my words,
But I'm not sure who it was,
Who you were became a blur.
Your grave was so damn empty,
When they covered you in sin,
You still lay in the trenches,
Fighting a war you'll never win.
And you'll burn away,
Into the secrets of a flame,
But I'll never forget,
The rules of your game.
I need a reason to let go,
Something worth holding onto,
It's the easiest to hold,
So why must I let go...
Don't make me do this,
Your ashes will turn to dust.
Don't leave me for the secrets,
Of a flame, a burning lust. |
