Burn It All

Could you please stay here, if just for a moment? I don't trust being alone right now Every breath I take, coalesces into shallow storms Still I push you away I've only got myself to blame So this is what's left of me Paralysed in a state of constant atrophy I'm counting shadows borne of misery Shelter myself from the unforeseen This is all too much for me I watched you drifting back amongst the walls As I sink into my own personal hell To light the pyre on the way I was before You won't recognise me anymore So burn it all Coz I've lost everything, can't bare to hold on to memories I never wanted this, to be such a mess Burn it all Where I found happiness, you saw dependency And that gave you enough reason to leave Setting in to this decrepit place As my mental state disintegrates I wither away And something inhuman remains I've been replaced I'm counting shadows borne of misery Shelter myself from the unforeseen This is all too much for me I watched you drifting back amongst the walls As I sink into my own personal hell To light the pyre on the way I was before You won't recognise me anymore So burn it all Coz I've lost everything, can't bare to hold on to memories I never wanted this, to be such a mess Burn it all Where I found happiness, you saw dependency And that gave you enough reason to leave
