you, sun flare in my eyes
you flicker on my skin
you, lightning down my spine
you whisper down the wire
if only you could be with me and feel what i feel
we could light it up, light it up, light it up and
watch it burn, let it burn let it burn, let it burn
we crackle in the heat
we, hunted but complete
we, wearing fire rings
we float above the street
so come with me, i’m all you need, tear up your history
c’mon let’s light it up, light it up, light it up and
watch it burn, let it burn let it burn, let it burn
if this is what it costs to change, then make the cut, i’ll take the blame whatever parts remain ashes will rain
and we will blow away as we rise into the sky
mixing matter, you and i, ten seconds
together forever time and space untethered
edges feathered, surrender, it’s now or never,
so close your eyes, cross wires, spark fire and watch it burn
