Like a moth to a flame You reduced me to ash, Singed these already broken wings, And at my wounds your flames did lash I was captivated by your danger Senseless from your beauty I only wanted to touch and feel And so your inferno left my heart sooty Enticed by your primal heat I was seduced by the warmth of you And so I was scorched in defeat As my wants took over my needs Ready to burn down whatever crossed your path You were a raging inferno I a single moth defenseless in your wrath Drawn to you by your impassioned thermo

Moth to a Flame
Like a moth to a flame You reduced me to ash, Singed these already broken wings, And at my wounds your flames did lash I was captivated by your danger Senseless from your beauty I only wanted to touch and feel And so your inferno left my heart sooty Enticed by your primal heat I was seduced by the warmth of you And so I was scorched in defeat As my wants took over my needs Ready to burn down whatever crossed your path You were a raging inferno I a single moth defenseless in your wrath Drawn to you by your impassioned thermo
