[Killed by Your Feet]
Flames lit up my mind like
a furnace
When I trapped myself in my
ashy memories of you
For you've killed me with
your feet
And shattered the imaginary
ring that you placed on meI now despondently swing
from a tree with dead roots
A perfect reflection of myself
For it reflects everything that
you left
A broken boy with a dead
imagination'Cause now I isolate myself
from everybody'Cause now I strangle myself
in our memoriesFor my purple ashes are lost
in the ocean
So deeply lost that I'll never
locate them
For I was on a quest to restore
my faded coloursBut I can't even visualise them
For my soul it became invisible
when you left
For you've stolen my emotions
with your feet
For you've killed me and you
cremated my purple bodyAll because I was a alien to
your bad demons,
All because I was a slave to
your constant lyingThat I was so blinded by your lies
That I couldn't even realise
That it was killing me insideFor I was so, so blind
And I couldn't even see that
my yellow soul was burning
And turning into purple ashesAt one flame per lie
And when I finally realised my
water was dry
And my ashes were smokey freshBut I couldn't even acknowledge
my past state,
For now I'm in urn with purple
ashesWith my ashy passions
With my ashy ambitionsThat I can't even persue now
'Cause my purple soul has
turned into purple ashesSo I'll never be sane again
For I dance in fire everyday
Pretending that I'm happy
When I'm in agonizing pain'Cause that's exactly what you
did,When you killed me with
your feet.
