A Dying Flame

We once had everything that we could've ever wanted

we wanted just a little bit more, to save feeling mediocre

we sold our souls to silence the noise

You need desire to ignite a dying flame when you're stoking the chars of a scorched heart

We'll light the torches

We will never learn

Our consequences will outlive the fires our spirits burn.

You search for cancer but never look within, your hands are decorated

in only your sins

You still hold me as accountable

When the only rules you believe, is you reap what you have sown

Here we're still standing, we know we'll see the sun rise again. we're not getting younger my friends, don't lose what you mean to them

We'll light the torches

We will never learn

Our consequences will outlive the fires our spirits burn

You search for cancer but never look within, your hands are decorated

in only your sins

When walking with the serpents, you better protect your neck

You still hold me as accountable

When the only rules you believe, is you reap what you have sown

We'll light the torches

We will never learn

Our consequences will outlive the fires our spirits burn
