» Poem: She's On Fire
She's On Fire
written by Morbid Angel
09:37 PM 4/19/05
Everything is burning down,
She feels like she's on fire,
Whatever she touches melts away,
And loved ones turn to liars.

She's had them all but she wants another,
Something that will matter,
And it will feel like nothing else,
Happily every after.

But fairytales don't mean anything,
To those who have lost faith,
In everything that guided them,
And they're gone without a trace.

For the first time in forever it all seemed pretty clear,
Theres only one thing left to do,
When your world is on fire.

Live in the moment,
And burn it to the ground,
Treat it as a second chance,
To let the bad things just dissolve.

And it takes so many seconds,
To hear it sizzle away,
But in the end when things cool down,
I know she'll be ok.

All those things that she lost,
Are those that can be replaced.
Think of all the things that are gone,
Lost without a trace...

She's betting away what she worked for,
And everything is on the line,
Everytime she climbed back up,
She risked away her life.

Thats what you get for being selfish,
And wanting more then you can recieve,
When she misses you more then anything,
It's all she needs live.

And if you won't accept that,
Where do you leave her now?
With a mess on her hands,
And everything burnt down.

Touch her heart and then you're gone,
But she will just forget,
Sometimes it's easy to move on,
But this isn't over yet.
