Ashes In a Cage

There's a fire burning Have you not yet heard? Rumor has it a woman Finally found her nerve She doused her home immensely In gasoline before striking a match The flames devoured it all From that life she's now detached See, the fire was all but catching Before a single soul could see Her home had long been smoking When she began choosing not to breathe Her home built on a foundation Has turned to smouldering ash Her life blown-up around her For nothing was left to be re-hashed With fire comes a cleansing Let everything burn except what's pure A match although so tiny Engulfed the life she once endured There's a fire burning Have you not yet heard? Only drenched in water, Holy Could these flames be overcome There's a fire burning Take note of what could be When you cage a warrior's spirit She'll burn the world to be set free
