I burned everything

that reminded me

and I watched it burn

watched the flame run free

and I watched ashes

rise up and create

a house I could roam

to dream and stay safe

I built a living

from sand that was gray

the wind started blowing

my house blew away

i shivered in darkness

the devil's empire

no more reminders

no more fire

and so I set

my head down to rest

this is what dying

feels like I guess
