The wall lights up and sets ablaze,

We run and go our separate ways.

It captures us, it's height, it's glow.

Our fear soars as we watch it grow.

It spits at us like hot, boiling venom.

It eat through our jackets of blue denim.

We scream as it burns through our skin,

Then at last the fire becomes thin.

We weave our way from the endless light,

And here we reach the sky of night.
