Ignite

I want to set the world ablaze
To let it rage and burn for days 

I want to see it all on fire
And heave my failures on that pyre

Just let it all burn down to ash 
Then perhaps we'll forget the past 

So maybe then can we be freed
From all our haunted memories 

Let all that's old come to an end
To let new life and hope begin

For only when smoke fills the skies
Bright will the reborn phoenix rise
