Set your world on fire

Coming down

This time doesn’t seem so easy

Burning, candle light

Our shadows shift with the wind

Cursing, mindless and numb

Self-reflection fills up paragraphs

A blank page, an empty pen

 

There’s a yearning inside

The shy boy who used to hide

Scratching at the surface

Still trying to feel alive…

I just want to set your world on fire…

 

Seemingly to discover

Not ourselves but one another

So deep we dive

My only other to confide…

A bride to be

Oh and you belong to me

To each other

We still have each other

 

But there’s a yearning inside

The shy boy who used to hide

Scratching at the surface

Still trying to feel alive

To deny my inner child

Once defiled

Defied the odds

Placed his bets

Found his best…

I just want to set your world on fire…

 

Calming down

Beneath the wind

Carried echoes

Buried voices, from long ago

Still throwing stones

It’s time they should know

I just want to set your world on fire…
