There is a fire that is burning me from within,
That fire people cant see in the coldness of my smile..
But it hurts inside,
It burns inside..

The smoke runs in the hoarse voice..
in the longing to be alone..
Where I don't have to pretend..
Where nobody can see ..
Something in me is dying,
Every second I breathe..

I may have to live with the fire,
the entire time.
Losing all that once I thought was time.
Into that valley of nothingness..
Where light cant reach,
& I need not hide..

The fire sets me free,
it lives in me..
To kill something I may not need..
But whose to judge..
That fire burns for me?
or against me?

All I can see is flames rising..
Rising to laugh at me,
when I bleed!
