The Fire

It's hard to cope
With the weather around here
I either choke
Or drown in the cold sea
A match I had thrown
Just to kill the apathy
Went out of control
And now I never escape it

Destructive habits
Fill more space
Than my head can fit
I'm helpless

I'm letting myself down again
I'm burning but I'm too scared to change
Will I die like that candle
You forgot on your nightstand
Burn to the bottom
Just waiting for this to

I use the sweet taste on my lips
To contend
With the emptiness, I feel
But I can't pretend
That when you go through the flames
You don't get lost in the smoke
If every fire needs oxygen
I could choke myself under my pillow

I'm letting myself down again
I'm burning but I'm too scared to change
Will I die like that candle
You forgot on your nightstand
Burn to the bottom
Just waiting for this to

I'm choking
I'm drowning
It's empty
But I'm finding
That the burning
Is calming
The heat that
Surrounds me
I'm choking
I'm drowning
It's empty
But I'm finding
That the burning
Is calming
The heat that
Surrounds me

I'm letting myself down again
I'm burning but I'm too scared to change
Will I die like that candle
You forgot on your nightstand
Burn to the bottom
Just waiting for this to
I'm letting myself down again
I'm burning but I'm too scared to change
Will I die like that candle
You forgot on your nightstand
Burn to the bottom
Just waiting for this to end
