I saw the words in your eyes and transcribed them into my heart I never lost control of the situation except when I passed the torch to you and you closed your eyes refused to speak, left the world burning beneath you and never reached for my hand. I never lost control, not me you never saw me weaken, never saw me shake You're face to face with this broken girl can see into her unwavering eyes and still you can't see that I'm shattered without you, I can't become the perfection that you want. You've burnt my hands completely but i can still speak into your eyes I lit the match to spark the fire burning in the crystal blue and you try to hide it but you cannot stop it. I lit your fire I burnt your bridges I left the gas running so you'd never escape the memory of me. And when the fire burns you, scars you, you'll remember me and know You could never stop loving me.
