Fire Flickers
You're burning away my words
 Like fire on my journal
 But I never meant to do anything bad
 Your orange flickers of danger
 Pass right underneath my nose
 I don't smell a single trace of smoke
 Until after the damage is done
 And I sit here, burned, scarred
 Right down to the heart
 It's hard to get there with some people
 Your flames can't reach there
 But there are people like me
 That your fire can't resist burning
 You let me die, while you went wild
 Never to be contained
 I'll thank you later for giving me realization
 I need bulletproof, fireproof walls around my heart
 My tears will be putting out your fire
 Drops of words that leave you drowning in regret
 Sever those ties I once had to you
 And I'm leaving now and forever.
