Haven't felt the insistence of the sun in too **** long
The sky ain't so happy with all that smoke floating around
But I just to had to burn it all to the ground
Green leaves scream and flutter like a dying phoenix
My wings are charred and I left your heart down below
No flowers have grown where no faith was shown
My fingertips ache from trying too hard to fall gracefully for you
And the great windmill waves good-bye with an air of hate
I wondered once what "we" could be
But I feel the ashes in my eyes and I guess that's over now
Fiery dances with no one watching and you weren't listening
Eucalyptus burns like no other, stinging sharp and choking thick
Sap and scalding passions, are your feet as scarred as mine
This is what happens when you dance on coals and kick up flames
You've burnt out while I still feed the fire storm in me
