Burner

My hands are shaking Her words are breaking My concentration and I can't tell her why Can anyone hear me? I'm almost screaming My actions are leaving a trail of dead in my wake How much more can I take? I've spent the last year stoking this blaze Burning this bridge we so carefully made I'll sacrifice my time digging these graves To make sure she leaves here unscathed I'm barely breathing From swallowing sentences And now I see these words are only wind I'll collect the kindling To burn down these pillars of memories These burned words get silenced by the breeze I've spent the last year stoking this blaze Burning this bridge we so carefully made I'll sacrifice my time digging these graves To make sure she leaves here unscathed Can I medicate these lapses in cognition with the answers To the questions I'm not asking if you promise to be candid? I've spent the last year stoking this blaze Burning this bridge we so carefully made I'll sacrifice my time digging these graves To make sure she leaves here unscathed
