Burning
You can’t hold me.
Don’t drag me down
My soul is on fire
And I can’t hear the sound
Of your fears
If it’s simpler for you to be a liar
Then stay far away
I don’t need you anyway
Just keep swallowing your words
Go ahead,
Choke them down
You think you know what to say
But what you let slip
From inside your head
Is all fake
I’m purging your spirit from within me
I don’t need a projection
Of what you think I want
You need me so bad
Because you can’t see what you have
I’m over selfish games and words
Don’t tell me what I am
I am the commander
Of this world
And what I become
So sorry, son
I won’t be your light in the night
A fighter against tears
I won’t be your knight in shining armor
Or your champion through the years
You can’t become what I want
Because if you were,
You wouldn’t need change
You’d cherish your being
And for mine do the same
You are nothing but a shell
Begging to be filled
If only you could see who you are
I thought I did
Oh well.
I guess we were just strangers
Laughing in hell
