september, autumn skies are closing in
and the mistake your reality
at best has left you broken
with wounds that re-open
on every brink of sleep
and a fire in your heart
that never dies and never seizes

and it goes up in flames
your world is torched away

showered by the embers of your fate
being burned by every
opportunity you threw away
he is regretting very moment
he is regretting every day
fueling the fire, burning desires
which fuel the pain

and it goes up in flames
your world is torched away

so let it go up in flames
your world is torched away
and the fire in your heart is fueling the pain
