I've just set myself on fire

"What a thing to do!" you say

Dressed all in silk and mother of pearl

Wrapped around this whole wide world

I blew apart all the things we've known, watch them slowly burn

Watch of our hearts broken in turn

You'd think by now that we would learn

You asked me once why I can't see

I looked you straight in the eye

I felt I looked beyond your shore to a place on high

"Why a fire?" you may ask

"Why smoke comes out your ear?"

'Cause if you could've felt the warmth of my touch you'd been my river of tears

Now that this heart of mine's been burnt, I think of all we've seen

Our worlds so close, drawn blue by love

Ablaze, now me, your queen
