Little match girl is the flame that she cant run from as she burns
right in front of me

I have no water, no dirt, it feels like all i give is gasoline

Blown and wasted and fading like a jading star, she bleeds her flame
searing her connections with love

So noone can get close enough to tell her that it is okay, when we know
that it really isnt

But maybe to sooth her burns just for one second, would be enough relief to
let her press on to more black space

There is no reason for her pain,and time doesnt give a reason, an invisible
stalker stealing shreads of her soul

Feeding off of the heat that she releases, her pain her misery, her anguish,


I put my arms around her and feel as the flame broils my flesh, but i dont care I
am in a complete trance

Ignorant to all of the pain that my body suffers because the profit by my soul heart
in mind is so great that I wont let go

In the midst of a beautiful super nova I crash and burn with her, feeling every explosion
as we fall painfully to hell and keep smiling

Its not the end, nor is it the beginning, it just is and that is all, its all one long ride
with alot of stops at places we shouldnt be

I see a tear before it evaporates in the flame and I clinch tighter, because maybe it really
is going to be okay

For the record.. there is only suppose to be one of these posted.. but AOL being the 10th world wonder decided to give you the joy of having it twice. Sorry, I guess its just my style.

Jaime if you laugh you will be shot, Ryan... Youll be next.

Later
Love
