• In order to stop the flames
    You have to let it burn everything away.
    It will leave you empty
    And it can take away your name.
    It has to run out of things to burn
    Before you can ever truly learn
    That pain is the heart of fear
    And fear is the heart of love.

    If you go with the motions,
    The followers get left behind.
    And when did I ever say
    That I haven’t lost my mind?
    But god forbid I love someone
    And god forbid you should.
    God forbid I make mistakes
    While trying the best I could.
    I’m sorry if what’s best for me
    Isn’t the best for the whole world.
    I know I can’t always get what I want
    But I know, it’s my turn.
    So if what’s good for me, sucks for you,
    Why should I be alive?
    You told me I would never lose you
    But your not by my side.
