I go where ever the wind blows, I keep running to where no one knows.

Everything is in chaos when I become part of the world, I have to find a way out because my logic is always being burned and curled,

sometimes when my head feels unwound I shred my skin then my mind feels unbound.
No one really stays around for long so Im trying to get used to life without sound until the day I'm gone.

There is no beast inside my cage only an animal incarcerated in rage,
like a demon from an endless age,
I learned to conjure myself from every dark place I know, like a story with an endless page. I live my life for myself and accept every experience until the end of my days.
Thanks to Kaitlin Floyd for helping refine the way I position my final draft.

I cried today
and burned away at my pain,

I hurt myself in a way,
I believed I had once fell in love with,
but soon enough forgotten.

you're simply not here anymore,
I am simply not worth a breath off your lips,
as you sigh,
as if to say,

Sweetie just leave for today,
and don't come back for tomorrow,
or any other day.

Like you wish to of said,
I will leave,
and I don't see myself coming back,

you like others,
have folded outstretched arms,
as you scold me,
as you tell me it's okay for me to be alone today,

I unlike you don't see how,
I can live without you,
I unlike you don't know how,
to keep going on.
sigh..
You loved me like fire
but the flames grew higher and higher
Until you had burned down everything we built
You loved me like fire
But the smoke rose higher and higher
Until I walked away from the ashes of your guilt

Now I'm out of lives
I´ve been burned too many times
and it's become to hard to withstand the pain
I'm gasping for air I can never acquire
I´d apologize, but you think I´m a liar
Saying we burned out cause I loved you like rain

You loved me like fire
but the flames grew higher and higher
Until I could no longer reach you through the flames
You loved me like fire
but the smoke rose higher and higher
Until I walked away from the ashes of your blame

Now I'm out of lives
I´ve been burned too many times
and to save my heart I was forced to let you go
To be loved was my only desire
I'm full of regret, but you think I´m a liar
Saying we burned out cause I loved you like snow
What do you think?

There is nothing darker than the putrid soul of your heart
Crusted by burnt desires and pyroclastic ash
Tortured by your existence, dipped into the hells of mankind

Bubbling skin and singed mercy embrace me whole
Turn up flames and burn me alive
Hear my screams ****** your mind

Cast me out of the dead, for I am not leaving
Laid in a forever coma then awakened
Pompeii is dead, Pompeii is dead, Pompeii is dead
Buried in volcanic ash during Mt. Vesuvius' eruption in 79 A.D., I used to live not to far from there, Pompeii is so surreal and tranquil
I am Monday
The sky on a rainy morning
I am the sea as it rumbles
The air as it trembles
I am the storm
And the calm
I am a mess
Catastrophe with eyes grayer
Than the smoke
Of the world that has burned down

All the girls fall in love with you.
That's what you said.
So that's exactly what I did.
Like a cheap advertisement that makes you buy a shiny car,
Like a pusher-man who says, "just try it once, you won't get hooked...it's free anyway so what's the harm?"
I fell right into your trap.
I'm surprised I can even still walk
I've fallen so many times for the sweet talk.
When will I finally learn.
Play with fire and you're bound to get burned.

Be careful
I'm flammable

You don't listen
as you shoot sparks
in every direction.

Stay away
I don't want to burn.

You don't listen
as you shoot sparks
in every direction.

I ignite in a second
I burn big, bright, and fast
I crackle with joy
I've never been so happy

You don't listen
as you shoot sparks
in every direction.

I'm all burned out
I am ashes, alone

You don't listen
as you shoot sparks
in every direction.

its been written
its been written in the stars
its been written in the scars
its been written in the hearts
its been written in the souls
its been written in the minds
its been written in our eyes
its been written on our arms
its been burned
its been carved
its been written, and it is permanent

Falling in love with me is like, playing with fire.
You're bound to get burned.
