phoenix

give me another reason not to care
because somehow they stil dont seem enough
I want to break for insanity
not for thirst
and cracked lips

I'll let you shatter every notion
I ever cherished
And burn it away
Scorch it out of the walls of my being

But be an eternal flame
lying in this moment
suicidal seconds
which you might overcome
ignore
until
you finally
burn out

just to rise again in someone else's hands
