Fire

Nevermind, forget what I said, you didn't listen anyway; never heard a thing I said,

Screaming and yelling, my voice like a fire; from the Dragons fierce belly, meant to catch you on fire.

Stabbing right through you, fire's flame's piercing hot; word's meant to be torched like the watcher's eye's watching us.

Lessons to be learned, fire meant to be hot; spinning and whirling lessons taught learned are tough.

Beating and pounding, my heart's like a drum; pop, pop, bang, bang, pound, pound, pop, strum.

Fire whirling from wind, water puts out small fire; your presence, your essence is what I desire.

Stop and just listen to what I won't say; fire under your feet makes you run even farther.

Looking, searching, through flames twisting fire; whats left is the ashes from our love, hot on fire.
