wings covered with dust and cries
don't come across as simple lies
to cover up the scars beneath
the skin; left inside, nearly ruined
sleep... to make the days go by
off to a place so far away
from you; where dusk screams until
the grace of night, it's nearly soothing
just so that i could stay
i'll burn myself like a moth to the flame...
and it might be cruel to liberate myself from your
everlasting violent gentleness like that... but...
leave me to burn!
