I am locked in your iron grip
Not a single drop of water between my lip
Let me fall and I will slip
Let me go and I will trip

I stumble in the darkness with no fire
I stand behind a glass will still filled with desire
Falling from the highest spire
As the flames call higher

Dust me off so I can rise
So you can look and see the pain in my eyes
All the times my flame dies
Nothing can put it out not even all the rain in the skies

You shine brighter than I do
Its all about me and never about you
All the words that could never be true
All the storms that you just walked through

I think I can reach up to where you dwell
And figure the stories you would never tell
Follow my nose what the is that smell
I chase you over the earth up to heaven and down to hell

A race that neither of us can win
You could ruin my world with the drop of a pin
You are a part of me like an evil twin
I love the fire you hold within

You were within my reach
I learned the lessons you had to teach
I said I loved you but it was just a figure of speech
You were a wall I had to climb
You were the wall I chose to breach

All the time
