[bodytext] => Cold, starry night I set with a plan Been getting ready for awhile I've prepared as much as I can Shut the door behind me My heavy breathing fills the room It's a long way to come, but My satisfaction will come soon Pull out the lighter And the old match that I found Throw down your notes The click is the only sound A single flame dances Just a taste of what's to come Bring the cold metal to my lips A flavor of abandon on my tongue Touch the two together Like passion, they alight Flickering as one, like us They describe how we unite. Toss the match to the floor Watch the flames grow around me Know, without any despair That this is what I need Close my eyes, breathe in the smoke It's hot, like the fire within Purifying my being, prespirating as I heal No more desolation, not a single sin I am cleansing myself for you In a dancing sea of orange and red Not a scream, not a single sound Not a soul woken in bed. When you find that note tomorrow When you read it, shaking in disbelief Know that our souls are one now I am taken care of; no need to grieve. Because once I opened my eyes I felt calm despite the burning pain I saw an angel, her halo alight As around us, the ceiling began to rain She took my hand gently; hers was cold as ice Despite the heat surrounding, she looked so nice Without a word She nodded And touched my burning body Blurry, my vision became She eased the pain And I could endure I finally felt cool, like the sea I finally felt pure.
