Anger

Like wildfire It starts in my chest The silence grows louder Ringing out in my head I feel the Earth shaking under my feet I feel the pressure building until I can't breathe And it takes everything It spills out Reckless but honest words leave out my mouth Like kerosene on a flame of doubt I couldn't make it right Alarms will sound But it's too late for holy water now Sooner or later the fire dies down I'll open up my eyes And I'll try and find the image of God In mountains made of ash and clouds of smoke It's fight or flight Buried in my mind It's fight or flight It keeps my mind cold But I feel it break With just one misstep down a fire escape And suddenly I'm someone that prays A last minute man of faith But I'll leave behind miles and miles of jagged lines Upon the surface of the Divine I wish I could set them straight Till it all spills out Reckless but honest words leave out my mouth Like kerosene on a flame of doubt I just couldn't make it right Alarms will sound But it's too late for holy water now Sooner or later the fire dies down I'll open up my eyes again
