Crimson Sky, Never Goodbye

I don't want to follow in your footsteps.
I don't need to breathe the air you breathe.
I don't want to stare the colour from your iris,
to fall into the dark endless void of your eyes

I don't want to walk in your shadow,
and, I don't need to live in your light.
I don't want to be born in your dreams,
to live inside your nightmares, and die in your mind.

Maybe I'm just an insignificant life form,
just a meager, incomplete man.
Bounded by your hypnotizing stare,
imprisoned by your counterfeit charm.

Prayers of love, laced with poison.
Lips of deceit, my pseudo goodnight kiss from you.
Promises of faith, drowned in paraffin.
Words of allure, my only salvation from the flames.
Crimson sky, never goodbye.
