Fire Song

I despise everything that I do But I haven’t stopped yet I leave smoking charcoal in my wake But I like to call it regret When I feel a spark of light I dread what will come next Why do I kill all I see? To this day it leaves me vexed I see falling water rain down on me And I’m temporarily relieved You think that I enjoy destruction But you are monstrously deceived I hate that I cannot stop myself I loathe the psychopath inside My guilt grows with each branch that falls From the tress that have nowhere to hide My reign of terror does not stop in the forest I attack the innocent children as well Men and women who did no wrong Fall victim to my burning spell Who will listen to my plea? Surely all are drenched in doubt When they hear the desperate song Of the fire that longs to be put out
