I want to be a candle I want to cover myself in wax Feel it broil my skin To see my waxy peel crack and break at the pressure Watch me fall as warmth is radiated on me And let the scorching heat take me over
I want to be a candle So they can finally see that I can only last so long From the tall shining figure To a Bath and Body Works cavity So they can watch the ******* fire turn to ashes Iām not flame-retardant I am a candle And my wick has burned out
Let me be a candle So that I, myself, can put out the lights And finally, be at peace
