Sadistic smile
Matchbox in hand
Light memories on fire
Ashes again
Burn it away
Burn it away
Burn it away
Burn it away
Everything
Sheltered in
A black-hooded sweatshirt
Comfort in
The blaze
His mind fueled
By embers of Hatred
Burn it away
Burn it away
Burn it away
Burn it away
Everything
Ironic that he would die
By his own hand
The blaze grew so fast
He took joy in the fire
He burned away
Revelled in flames
Burned away
Consumed by flames
Everything
By the blaze
His heart
To ashes
The sky
Lamented
His sorrow
Ashes
Sirens flash
Red trucks
Men in yellow suits
Water
And more water
She stands alone
No one will move her
She's not listening
Mirrors for eyes
The blaze
His heart
Say goodbye
Her love in life
Twisted by
Haunting memories
Burned away
Everything
To ashes
The blaze dies
Down
