Smoldering Wick

Haunting my home
Your shadow lingers
I wake from the fear
Your ghost draws near
I saged the corners
Trying to find where you hid

Laying in bed
The sheets are cold
I'm tryna forget
The lovers of old
The flames growin' bigger
I'm tryin' so hard to let go

You built me up
And you razed me
How could you
My ol' baby
Give me up
Melt me and leave me so cold

Every memory
Comes back to you
Every month
Tied in Mourning
While May brings flowers
It only holds
Your birthday for me
Ain't that cruel baby

You built me up
And you razed me
How could you
My ol' baby
Give me up
Melt me and leave me so cold

And while I want peace
You're everywhere
Echoing across the creek
Imprinted in my bed
Living in my head
My mirrors only show you
I should have covered them to let you go
But even an angry presence
Was better than none at all

You built me up
And you razed me
How could you
My ol' baby
Give me up
Melt me and leave me so cold
