It appears that I've gone dark again Same familiar cage, same old cell Lost inside my personal hell Light a candle to show me the holes This is how to deal with it This is the only way I know And it's just as well Running into walls Putting out fires The edges of my heart are scorched Torches lit and flickering at the pyre Everywhere I turn It's like a maze and I'm amazed Should just give in to the burn Torch it all Let it all go Instead of feeling frozen, fan the final flame A cauterized and sterilized shell of my past Nothing but embers, ash and shadow This is the only way I know

static & burn.
It appears that I've gone dark again Same familiar cage, same old cell Lost inside my personal hell Light a candle to show me the holes This is how to deal with it This is the only way I know And it's just as well Running into walls Putting out fires The edges of my heart are scorched Torches lit and flickering at the pyre Everywhere I turn It's like a maze and I'm amazed Should just give in to the burn Torch it all Let it all go Instead of feeling frozen, fan the final flame A cauterized and sterilized shell of my past Nothing but embers, ash and shadow This is the only way I know
"It's You, It's You, It's all for you, Everything I do..."
