Lost to the Fire

I've lost my love to the fire
The flames licked it away
And the smoke fills my lungs
And my heart falls astray

The heat burns my skin
Poison at the touch
And the light blinds my eyes
It's all just too much

The pain makes me bleed
The red just like a rose
And the loss makes me cry
But I'm stuck in happy pose

The ashes leave me frozen
With a smile on my face
And the rubble is hard to see
Yet I must stay in one place

The rain pouring down
Does little to free me
It just makes me colder
And I just want to be free
