Fire

A fiery flame is hard to tame.

But all in all, mesmerizing the same.

The bright, big flame lights up my eyes.

The burning ash that flies and flies.

 

I have these urges to set things ablaze.

Oh the flame catches my gaze.

The heat, the warmth, oh so good.

Please, oh please, give me some wood.

 

I’ve gotten to a point where I burn my skin.

I have a fire burning within.

I want to cover myself in gasoline.

I’ll be the brightest thing they’d ever seen.

 

Set myself ablaze, ablaze!

Let me go into a haze.

Let the flames engulf me so.

Let me put on such a show!

 

Burn me, burn me as you please.

Burn me, burn me till I seize.

Take my life, take my pains.

Let the flames take my reins.
