Burn Your Memory Down
Lost in a dark vaporous pit
Suffocating in the fumes of you
After you went up in flame
I tried to extinguish you for good
Still you hang around
Like a broken parachute
Trapped on a tree limb
What does it matter
We won't be taking off
Or crash-landing ever again
In the vast and vacuous
Space which is your soul
I have been too many times
I'm climbing out now
I think I've seen the light
