You waltz through this hell
Like it’s just a park
You laugh at them
They’re afraid of the dark
Because you’ve seen worse
Oh so much worse
They’ve had it easy
You’ve had the inverse
You’ve fought the long night
You’ve faced the fierce fire
They’re out of breath soon
But you just don't tire
They begin to cry
At every small burn
They don’t have the tolerance
You’ve had to learn
You walk through the fire
Like it’s so amusing
Though your heart’s burning
And your soul’s bruising
Because you’ve gone numb
To all of the pain
It’s left a permanent
Stain on your brain
And now you laugh
At the fire and flames
You know better than
To play their games
You know how to live
Forever burning
But won’t you teach me,
I’m still learning
I haven’t swam through
Infernos as long
Living with my heart on fire
Still feels wrong
So teach me to brave
The pain within
And teach me to waltz
Through hell with a grin
