october's flame
you can tell that i hate this, but why?
there must be a reason for it all to crawl inside
there must be a place where i can run to hide
indeed, this all becomes a part of me
a part of myself, that i could never see
i don't want to live in your ugly world anymore
your world i threw away so long ago
now, my arms reach out to sever this rusted sky
but they won't ever reach quite far enough
i'm above you all, yet you know i'm still below it
take me out of this frozen place, hold me to the flames
let me free, o let me know
when october dawns upon my soul
it begins anew, and there will be no more
i shift, i change
in this skin, i rearrange
let the fire come to me
may it burn me this time
may i know the reason why
i don't want to be here
just anywhere but
wouldn't i just rather be hidden?
out of view, and out of my mind
please, seal me behind locked doors
and throw away the keys
you aren't fit for me
there's things i'm not quite fit to see
knowing what's become of me
this world denies it's existance
we don't want to know why we're here
we just live every day passing like we weren't
what you see is what you're bound to break
what i don't want is what i have to take
