By the time you read this,
It’s already too late.
It’s all turned to ash
Consumed by our hate.

He was my Robin Hood,
My man of the knight.
Took me in as family,
Came to me each night.

Our ignorance was bliss,
We tried to save with a kiss.
Got lost in selfishness
Who the hell are we to blame for this?

In time, he dropped my hand like stone,
With a smirk so sly
I was alone.
He pushed and pulled me every way,
Some things you never have to say.

I lost myself, I lost my mind,
We circled death a thousand times.
He lit the match that started it all
Did he really think the mighty wouldn’t fall?

As flames pierced through my skin so dry,
I had nothing left to do but cry.
My life went up in a flash of eye,
I watched as our love burn alive.
The smoke rose up into the sky,
It danced along one last time,
Before we said our last goodbye.
