Light My Pyre
Heart awake
Shadows of hate
Rise from your memory
Blacken your gaze
Hesitance
Isn't your act to take
I've dug my grave
Build it higher
I can see the end (hands bound)
Atop the burning ground (urn for your bile)
Flames lick my feet
And I scream and you smile
Light my pyre
Set my blood on fire
Strangling me with jealousy
Of every time that
My desire grew limp
And stray I would
With my wandering eyes
You longed to blind them
Blind my sight once and for all
My skin melts away (I'm yours)
Muscle torn and frayed (embraced and scorned)
At last you've
Got what you wanted and
My blood boils for you
For you and you alone
Light my pyre
For passion's lust cannot be mine
The one you'd see
To set my heart afire
And cast my ashes to the sky
Build a mound for me
And bring me to my knees
Before your stubborn love bleeds out
Light my fucking pyre now
The price of love
Too steep for me
And yours fulfilled
Would swallow me whole
End this now
Let me go
Disavow
Break my body
Over branch and stone
Carrion birds
Sick with the rain
That dampens my carcass
Clean my remains
Burned out corpse
I have become
Have faith
My legacy's erased
Charred and broken
Hold you high your head (I'm gone)
And step oe'r the dead (no more your scourge)
But tell me
What of your spirit is left unscathed?
I beg thee
Light my pyre
For passion's lust cannot be mine
The one you'd see
To set my heart afire
And cast my ashes to the sky
Build a mound for me
And bring me to my knees
Before your stubborn love
Bleeds out
Light my fucking pyre now
Rend me limb from limb
And all my flesh from bone
I reap as I have sown
Shadows of hate
Rise from your memory
Blacken your gaze
Hesitance
Isn't your act to take
I've dug my grave
Build it higher
I can see the end (hands bound)
Atop the burning ground (urn for your bile)
Flames lick my feet
And I scream and you smile
Light my pyre
Set my blood on fire
Strangling me with jealousy
Of every time that
My desire grew limp
And stray I would
With my wandering eyes
You longed to blind them
Blind my sight once and for all
My skin melts away (I'm yours)
Muscle torn and frayed (embraced and scorned)
At last you've
Got what you wanted and
My blood boils for you
For you and you alone
Light my pyre
For passion's lust cannot be mine
The one you'd see
To set my heart afire
And cast my ashes to the sky
Build a mound for me
And bring me to my knees
Before your stubborn love bleeds out
Light my fucking pyre now
The price of love
Too steep for me
And yours fulfilled
Would swallow me whole
End this now
Let me go
Disavow
Break my body
Over branch and stone
Carrion birds
Sick with the rain
That dampens my carcass

For passion's lust cannot be mine
The one you'd see
To set my heart afire
And cast my ashes to the sky
Build a mound for me
And bring me to my knees
Before your stubborn love
Bleeds out
Light my fucking pyre now
Rend me limb from limb
And all my flesh from bone
I reap as I have sown
