Description BURN

To all of the Fallen
To all of the lost
Who have given their wings
No matter what the cost

To all of the Jaded
To all of the broken
Whose hearts have been silenced
Whose souls go unspoken

To all of the abandoned
To all of the used
Who wanted to lie still
But your hearts have refused

As the rain goes falling
I remember this place
Where nothing is left forgotten
And memories are fought to be replaced

As my hair falls
into my eyes
I'm left remembering
the tears I've cried

As my skin becomes numb
facing the wind
I am left re-living
the emptiness within

As my body becomes limp
and falls to the ground
I'm left trying to forget
the pain that I have found

Convincing myself..
Somehow
That this is no longer true
That I have crawled out alive
And healed my wounds

So pretty.. So fucking pretty
An Angels eyes
With Skin of satin
Nothing protecting me.. from you

If only you could touch it
But one touch is never enough
To bleed it dry of life
To taste this blood upon your knife
To walk away and never return
To douse it with gasoline and watch it burn

From the distance you watch
your plan complete
Brushing your shoulder
from your latest defeat

Fate will find you and defend
It lingers in a fold
To bury you times 10

To avenge the pure
To protect the true
Let The truth be revealed
Seeping through the lies told by you

So nothing is gone without a price
You think you will move on and live your life
But the winds will change and it will be your turn
To be standing inside..
As I watch You burn.

-Catherine D.
