As it calls for my name
I decline the opportunity.
Thoughts filled with hesitation
Feelings of guilt weigh heavy with temptation,
What am I to do when I crave attention
My body could only hold out for so long…
It calls for my name,
But I decline the opportunity
Thoughts filled with possibility
But guilt weighs heavier than any boulder
With feelings.
The weight of it all has me hunched over
The burning sensation of body heat under the scorching sun
Recreates the fire of Notre-Dame.
As it calls for my name, for one final time
I finally accept the opportunity
As the burning flames unfortunately take over
And I succumb to the fire.

As it calls for my name
I decline the opportunity.
Thoughts filled with hesitation
Feelings of guilt weigh heavy with temptation,
What am I to do when I crave attention
My body could only hold out for so long…
It calls for my name,
But I decline the opportunity
Thoughts filled with possibility
But guilt weighs heavier than any boulder
With feelings.
The weight of it all has me hunched over
The burning sensation of body heat under the scorching sun
Recreates the fire of Notre-Dame.
As it calls for my name, for one final time
I finally accept the opportunity
As the burning flames unfortunately take over
And I succumb to the fire.
