You thought you'd killed me

Thought that I was done

When you left me bleeding

Bleeding on the ground

It's true I'm dying

But I believe

That death comes only

To those in need

Fire only brings me life

As it eats my cold, dead flesh

So now starts my afterlife

Bone and sinew start to mesh

You can never keep me down

You can only kill me now

But just as sunbeams fill the skies

I will be your own demise

Fire-starter

They once said

And so I'll burn you

When you're dead
