YOU’RE JUST A WILDFLOWER
CAUGHT IN A WILDFIRE
AND I NEVER EVEN HAD A CLUE
YOU NEVER HAD A CHANCE TO BLOOM
I WAS QUICK TO ASSUME
EVERYTHING WAS ALRIGHT WITH YOU
YOU’RE JUST A LOST SOUL
WHO HAS LOST ALL CONTROL
TRYING TO GET YOUR LIFE BACK
BUT YOU DON’T KNOW
HOW TO FIGHT BACK
YOU WERE A FREE SPIRIT
AND I DIDN’T WANT TO HEAR IT
THAT YOU’RE FREEDOM
WAS BEGINNING TO CHANGE
AND I WAS THE ONE TO BLAME
DID I LIGHT THIS FLAME?
DELICATE, THORNY WILDFLOWER
ENGULFED IN MY WILDFIRE
YOU MAY HAVE LEFT A CLUE... OR TWO
BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO SEE THE TRUTH
PLEASE TELL ME...
WHAT I CAN DO
TO MAKE SURE
EVERYTHING IS ALRIGHT WITH YOU
YOU THINK I DON'T CARE...
BUT MAYBE I CARE TOO MUCH
THE TRUTH IS, I'M SCARED
I SCORCH EVERYTHING I TOUCH...
YOU HAVE A RARE SEED
THAT THE WHOLE WORLD NEEDS
SO LET NO ONE STEAL OR FEED
OFF OF YOUR BEAUTY…
NOT EVEN ME
