On Fire

Walk me through the broken glass — I’m not bleeding
Toss me to the fire and to the sun
Drag me through the nine circles of suffering
Feed us to your demons as they come
Your words are paper leaves on fire
Can’t you see how they’re eating us alive?
I’m the flames in need to get higher
Nothing can smother it this time
The sun goes down so that we can see the stars
Come closer to the fire and let us get lost
Into it’s movement on the walls
We can not deny this feeling of warmth
As we watch things dissolve
Your words are paper leaves on fire
Can’t you see how they’re eating us alive?
I’m the flames in need to get higher
Nothing can smother it this time
Walk me through the broken glass — I’m not bleeding
Toss me to the fire and to the sun
Follow me through the five stages of grief
Lead us to the death by thousand cuts
Your words are paper leaves on fire
Can’t you see how they’re eating us alive?
I’m the flames in need to get higher
Nothing can smother it this time
