last rites of our love

strike the match and let me burn

i become the flame


One of my favorite songs Your Ex Lover is Dead by Stars came on Spotify today. I love the opening spoken line "When there's nothing left to burn you have to set yourself on fire."

There are probably others still doing the challenge, but I have lost track. Here is a recent one from Liz Montano.
