I want to burn
But i already am
Im caught in flames
Spiraling down the rabbit hole
Losing hope
I didn't know i was turning to ash
Someone put the fire out
I don't want to burn anymore
But i do?
Whats wrong with me?
I don't understand
Gotta make up my mind
Ash to dust or alive and breathing?
Dead or dead?
Living or living?
But I'm both
Breathing but dead
Do i keep burning or stop and freeze?
Same question, different words
Keep falling, farther and farther
Spinning out of control
Wait, i burned?
I thought i had more time
I did?
What happened to it?
It burned too?
Oh so I'm ashes and dust
Dead in the outside
Not on the inside anymore
Not breathing
Because i burned
