Brushfire

I watch you burn with deceit behind your tongue And collapse under the weight of what you’ve done Everything drifts away, you hear me now, I sink but will not drown Find a peace to reach beyond the rusted song Darkness fill my lungs “Destroy Everything” Give me anything Melt away my fears Set my world in stone All that we hold dear Everything dies alone Oh, I am your burden The grief from which you run Guest of gloom sleep in your tomb Some wars cannot be won Lie within lies Unstitch both my eyes Reach up towards the wall Climbing just to fall Wretch. I can’t save you Drown in the flames I am your burden The grief from which you run I hide in wreckage from wars which can’t be won
