spiritual flames
The fire wrapped me
In its arms
Promising
It'd do no harm
The little flames
Engulfed me whole
Slowly burning up my soul
Now the world will seal my fate
Now the world will cover my face
Embers
and ashes
and flashes
and flames
Swallowed my body and put me to shame
Taking my heart and burning my lungs
As I am screaming I can hear the drums
The silence embellishes the sound of my
Flesh
When I awake, I will greet death
In its arms
Promising
It'd do no harm
The little flames
Engulfed me whole
Slowly burning up my soul
Now the world will seal my fate
Now the world will cover my face
Embers
and ashes
and flashes
and flames
Swallowed my body and put me to shame
Taking my heart and burning my lungs
As I am screaming I can hear the drums
The silence embellishes the sound of my
Flesh
When I awake, I will greet death
