His heart a setting desire A holy man on fire The ashes from his clothes hover overhead Tarnished dry rain attached to eyelids Blinding the ones admiring He could've been loved His demons were not friends A lighter was no different He screams in tortured relief His body empty caressing the ground A entity formed through headaches and torn garments His need for her was never finished

Torched was the moment he felt alive
His heart a setting desire A holy man on fire The ashes from his clothes hover overhead Tarnished dry rain attached to eyelids Blinding the ones admiring He could've been loved His demons were not friends A lighter was no different He screams in tortured relief His body empty caressing the ground A entity formed through headaches and torn garments His need for her was never finished
