You lit a match
You let it burn
You watched
You saw me
You thought I'd run when I saw
But thats not who I am
For I know fires
They consume all
Just burning until theres nothing left
I saw it was wrong
Foolishly believing I could stop it
Instead I burned
I felt the pain
every flame burning my skin
ash filling my lungs
I'm not an idiot
I knew it was wrong
I tried to help
But you couldn't let me
You couldn't trust me
Not now I'd tell everyone
You knew you had hurt me
You thought I was petty like you
So you acted like you didn't see
You ignored me as I burned
In the fire you started
Than convinced yourself it was my fault
This must be my fault
For you lit the match
But I believed I could stop the fire
Than when the fire burned out
I did the impossible
I came back
I was covered in scars
That only you could see
You trued to looked away
I could still see the fear in your eyes
She'll tell everyone is all you could think
Though in reality
As you feared my every word
I did something you can't even understand
I forgave you
For I know for the rest of your life
You'll be starting fires
Until your fire has consumed everything
I just wish you had let me help
But how can you trust me
Because you can't trust yourself
