Pinching out the flames ignited in my hearts beat
I've been standing on the rooftops over this city-
Above the altitudes of normalcy-
Bringing light to the night
And this entire time I've been the only one in flames

But tonight the light will fade
And the city will rest in silence
With the words that escaped the identity of my core-
shinning past the stars-
down into the minds which continue to accumulate
And the lingering of life touching the ones who wonder through both the rise and fall of days
