The Fire

In the burning embers of us I'm relearning memories of us Everything looks different to me now We were glowing incandescent Far too bright to last forever Still I never thought you'd burn it down But you Burned it down There's a fire that burned Until it turned Every little thing we had to ashes I thought we both got hurt Until I learned I had the pain you had all the matches I lost everything the night that you decided you would light the fire I lost everything the night that you decided you would light the fire When you knew the flame was dyin' How did you maintain the lyin Gave yourself away to someone else You were smoke without the fire Nothing but a vague outline Of a more enlightened version of yourself Version of yourself There's a fire that burned Until it turned Every little thing we had to ashes I thought we both got hurt Until I learned I had the pain you had all the matches I lost everything the night that you decided you would light the fire Ohhh, you would light the fire I lost everything the night that you decided you would light the fire
