We are firefighters you and I.
Fighting back a blind hot fire.
You, because of our impossible situation and the Other.
Me, because of my impossible situation and your Other.
I'm trying to keep my fire low and starving, or only a faint glow even,
but a whiff of air is enough,
enough to set my whole existence on fire.
Lay homes in ashes if not drowned or extinguished.
I'm grateful...
you keep your fanning breath of air
a swift tickling breeze for my sake.
Keeping your flare out of my flammable hair
but God, I want to burn so badly
I want to flame high, white and hot.
Not allowed to do that though....sadly...
I want to explode in a firestorm.
Consume everything in my way.
not listen to what they'd say
Turn everything into sorrow and ashes.
Let my heated tongues of flame lick you,
until you too is burnt to pieces.
Burnt pieces of charcoals
that I'd keep in my heated heart.
A charred smoking reminder
of how devastating this fire of our love is.
How ugly to all that is beautiful and true.
Once letting my fire burn free there is no taming it,
no pardon, no wit
So, thank you my love!
For not fanning this fire
with more than
your flammable existence
It is oxygen enough.
I've lost all resistance.
So, thank you my love!
For not doing it my way.
Not letting me lay
my world in ached ruins.
It doesn't seem fair,
but let me slowly suffocate,
Turn your love into hate
make me choke and gasp for air.
A faint flickering flame
Pitiful and tame
As my fireman, put it out while you still can...
Nah, this doesn't come out right, but still needs out...
