Burning Brighter

A Poem by Sarahthirk
"

This is about when someone copied some of my lyrics and put it into one of "her" songs. She acted like she had no clue what I was talking about. So I wrote about it.

Burning Brighter

Intro:
Get off of your cloud
Life isn't one big game
Put your feet on the ground
If you wanna see the light of day
My lies are on fire
But my will is burning brighter

Verse:
Your lies are burning brighter than the fire in my eyes
Dropped your dignity, took off your disguise
Don't you know I can sting like a bee?
Especially when you steal my sanity

Pre-Chorus
You better believe it ain't over
I'm not the kind of girl to let you get away
With stealing all of my thunder
Oh this isn't at all your day

Chorus:
Get off of your cloud
Life isn't one big game
Put your feet on the ground
If you wanna see the light of day
You've got your crew
That surrounds you every step you take
If you only knew
The stakes are being raised
My matches are already out
They're gonna burn your smile down
Your lies are on fire
But my will is burning brighter

Verse:
How do you fall asleep at night?
You can't even find a reason to apologize
Don't you dare act like you can't see
That all you are is a wannabe

Pre-Chorus:
I'm gonna show you what I do best
I'm about to turn your all your blue skies to grey
Darling you failed my test
You're gonna wish your ship never sailed into my bay

Chorus:
Get off of your cloud
Life isn't one big game
Put your feet on the ground
If you wanna see the light of day
You've got your crew
That surrounds you every step you take
If you only knew
The stakes are being raised
My matches are already out
They're gonna burn your smile down
Your lies are on fire
But my will is burning brighter

Bridge:
I'll spread the word around town
My shields will never go down
Bullets are flying all around
You'll fall flat on the dark, cold ground

Chorus:
Get off of your cloud
Life isn't one big game
Put your feet on the ground
If you wanna see the light of day
You've got your crew
That surrounds you every step you take
If you only knew
The stakes are being raised
My matches are already out
They're gonna burn your smile down
Your lies are on fire
But my will is burning brighter

Excellent work.
The thief will have a good lesson indeed.
Like the bridge as the most favorite lines:
"I'll spread the word around town
My shields will never go down
Bullets are flying all around
You'll fall flat on the dark, cold ground "
