that fire it burned so bright
brighter than the stars at night
it was red.
it burned with passion and even anger
and now, you feel like such a stranger
i never thought you would be like the rest
and you did not even do your best
i used to think i was not good enough
but now i know, with some its never enough
that fire, the red, that orange, that yellow
it was hot to the touch and now it is mellow
it is not anything like it used to be
and it is not hotter and brighter like we wanted to see
it went to orange, in less than a year
but once attached, i really feared
that it would go to yellow, and stay that way
but now i know there's an even lower color
to my dismay
it then went from green to blue
i expected it with them,but not from you
i will not lay down and die, no way
my faith and persistence will stay
this "fairytale" that i want, that doesnt exist
you dont believe so you'll always miss
even if it's right in front of your face
your delusion is a ******* disgrace
im walking now, running, in the other direction
its so blue and so cold, and not to mention
fake has been re-defined
and i didn't then anything could be worse than what i left behind
thank you so much, i really i do...
because now you're just one of them youre no longer you.
