Dancing On Ashes

I'm sick of all your rules about what I should be doing next.
These great expectations are gladly destroying what is good in me.
These flows find nothing but conflict.
The seed planted but neglected the required care.
Watch and see your beloved flower
withering right before your eyes.

Set my soul ablaze, you're dancing on ashes now.
Steal the spark and hide something I wouldn't call perfect.
What's missing is not important.
You'll replace with what you wish.
Ablaze, ablaze you're dancing on ashes now.
You're dancing on ashes now.

Look at what you've made of me.  
You use it the way it's not suppose to be,
as steppingstones to what you could never achieve.
I build what you want, you break it and say it isn't enough.
Together we'll create and because of you it's incomplete.

Now's the time to make it clear.
It's a waste because of what you lack.
The difference between us both was always a reason to part ways...
