━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

even after all the burning
our hands melting like wax
i keep flying back to you
for i am well entwined with you
what else is there to do

you, the light in my eyes
a promised happiness
replaced with ash and lies
every time the same result
yet i cannot look away

danger is a beautiful thing
risk a trusty sidekick
always pulling you in
just to push you under

there was love here
and it was golden
but it was always meant to break
doomed from the start to fail

you get a new beginning
and i will burn
and the cycle will repeat
for the love is still here,
the happiness rekindled

there is nothing we can do
a power out of our hands
the universe has spoken
sent from start to suffer

each time, i will get close enough
to burn my hands
and each time, i will still find the good
in those who burn me
and each time,
it will be a tragedy
