See the flame
Forget my face
Forget my name
Just like the candle
On the ledge
I'm on fire
I'm on edge
Feel the burning
Deep inside
Scolding Hate
And searing pride
My brain explodes
Inside my head
I'm too alive
To just be dead
My blood will boil
Skin turns black
I've gone too far
To take it back
My heart is sinking
So far down
I throw away
The sacred crown
The chance I once
Posessed to live
Was not enough
For me to give
You hurt me 'till
I fell apart
You lit the fire
In my heart
No longer is it
Harmless fun
I tried to turn
I tried to run
But like the devil
Perched on your shelf
Can't hide the pain
Inside yourself
Death by fire
Burning hot
My organs all
Begin to rot
No one knows
No one will see
The evil sin
You gave to me
No one knows
What it's about
I'm dying from
