In which I burn...

I'm thinking of starting a community called Ask Me Anything, in which you can ask me anything. Of course, no one would ask me anything, and it would quickly fall into disuse. :\

Drifting upward
Gently lifting
Lazy on the wind

Blowin over
Turnin slowly
Beginning and the end

Fire is bright
Fire is clean
Never so alive

Smoke is freedom
Flame is mercy
I am free tonight

And I burn...
I burn.


Stoke the embers
Cleanse the spirit
A prayer in every spark

Feel the lick of
Bad religion
The finish and the start

In the beginning
We were smarter
Flame was heaven-sent

Through the ages
We got stupid
And now we must repent

And I burn...
I burn.

SIFT THE ASHES
FOR REMINDERS
STUDY THINGS REMAINED

TOOTH AND BONE?
UNIMPRESSIVE
I HAVE LEFT THESE THINGS

Because fire is bright
Fire is clean
Efficient and divine

Tooth and bone
Charms and dolls
I am FREE tonight

I'm on
the air
you breathe

I'm on

the air

you breathe

I'm on

the air

you breathe

And I burn...

I burn...

I burn...

I burn...

I burn.
