In my mind you're a scientist That sadistic smile sparkles With the glow of your white lab coat Another day of tweaking the variables Measuring the effects of each experiment Carefully calibrating the potency of your words To acquire a more spectacular combustion All just to see If the power of your consuming lust Can put out the flames once more Or if your fragile test subject Will finally reach her breaking point And shatter into a state of no return.

Spontaneous Combustion
In my mind you're a scientist That sadistic smile sparkles With the glow of your white lab coat Another day of tweaking the variables Measuring the effects of each experiment Carefully calibrating the potency of your words To acquire a more spectacular combustion All just to see If the power of your consuming lust Can put out the flames once more Or if your fragile test subject Will finally reach her breaking point And shatter into a state of no return.
