And this fire deep within my writhing bones Became intensely hot and burned the town In hues of red and marigold Mixing ash in shades of black As the whole world screamed in terror Running with all their might And you just stood there roasting marshmallows And singing campfire songs Until you fell asleep next to my warmly kindled wrath Like the entire universe in flames Was not as important As laying next to me

Flames
And this fire deep within my writhing bones Became intensely hot and burned the town In hues of red and marigold Mixing ash in shades of black As the whole world screamed in terror Running with all their might And you just stood there roasting marshmallows And singing campfire songs Until you fell asleep next to my warmly kindled wrath Like the entire universe in flames Was not as important As laying next to me
