I am the fire

I feel the fire
burning up the love
little yellow flames
eat through
the barrier I tried to build
around me and you

I fuel the fire
with kerosene soaked thoughts
and combustible suspicions
when was the last time you talked to her?
why do you keep checking up on her?
when was the last time you fucked her?
does she even know about us?

I throw everything that was good
In this fire
Its heat keeps me warm

I’m driven by the anger
I’m running away
Turning memories and trust
Into ashes and dust

This fire
My anger
My jealous nature
Consumes me

Don’t know if I can live with it
Don’t think I can live without you
