BURN

As if two passengers on two different flights
I have to remember that it's your life
We crashed and burned into the fire of night
 
From the wreckage I found you in that false light
You said you needed time, I needed space
Out of the pyre we formed what we thought was right
 
 
Mixed emotions, senses numbed, the absence of sight
We both lied to save one another from the true feelings
We crashed and burned into the fire of night
 
"I respect you, you're Godly, brilliant and bright."
With lies on both sides, I hesitate to swallow more of your words
Out of the pyre we formed what we thought was right
 
Engulfed in flames, singed hearts, burnt souls, we say goodnight
I have given you time, you my space
We crashed and burned into the fire of night.
 
Coming with the morning sun, the revelation of true sight
I have to remember that its my life, my regret
Out of the pyre we formed what we thought was right
 
I know now that I lost you in the plane crash that night
Wishing to remember what we were, but wanting to forget that flight
We crashed and burned into the fire of night
Out of the pyre we formed what we thought was right
~B.L.G.
