Burning Memory

love you could not grasp

cold hearted man hollow carcass a rock would love me more

could never make you love me contorted myself to prove i could no connection with you so what did i break but me

i couldn’t hold your attention it wasn’t me that didn’t measure up

tried so hard to prove a sign of life you couldn’t be raised from the dead your shattered soul what could you do with the crush of your weakness

too careless to recognize the ultimate loss but deep within where you cannot reach is the imprint of me you will never escape the memory of my touch the power of my love

try to sleep burning with rage burn yourself down see me in the flames

when darkness falls and silence surrounds you know the only good thing you ever had you destroyed

ice in your veins tortured soul you always kill what you want most

memory burning you never escaping your demons is your curse

you had it all at your fingertips love you could not grasp

it would have been beautiful if not for you

walking dead evil on your back even you don’t know who you are stealing identities mimic and mime

keep building your impenetrable walls to hide behind while throwing stones

compelled to control and demolish

memory burning you never escaping your demons is your curse

you say you’ve been betrayed now I know all your stories are lies you set fire to your house and you’re still burning

you betray yourself and I betrayed me by trying to bring the dead to life

run along spread your lies i’ll bring the flames see me in the fire
