Burn

Every day starts the same, this feeling of emptiness
Awake from its sleep, silence has stopped
I surrounded myself with the company of loneliness
I started talking to myself, I started craving interaction

Waiting for the tiredness to hit me enough that I fall into rest
Waiting for solace to return before waking to your absence once again

I'm not sure if this memory of you is what I remember
Or if I'm just trying to create a forest fire from an ember
Am I seeing you for the trees?
These roots run dry inside of me

There's a wild fire inside my head
And I can't stop the flames

It's been years since someone mentioned your name
And for that I'll take all of the blame
No flowers on your grave to bloom, blossom and fade
To bloom, blossom and fade

There's a wild fire inside my head
And I can't stop the flames
And I burn with all you said
Yet there's a chill within my bones

Take this life away
Take this life away

Have I been starring in the mirror for too long?
I don't recognise myself
Like repeating a word trying to find meaning

I know you had something to ask
Do you think I did enough?
You should have done more
Was my hand ever there for you to hold?
I was drowning before you cared
Do you forgive me?
