Flames

I’ve lost my prized possession

All due to my ambition

So determined and naive

Been hurt but now I’m aching

I feel myself withering away

My state of peace quickly became into fear

So high up in my freedom

But I guess I got too safe

What I once thought was my escape was my downfall

Took something and ruined it

Now I’m sitting with the ashes of my beloved

Wishing the wings didn’t get the best of me

Wish my thoughts didn’t get control of me

I would be alive instead of being in these flames

The flames of the fire I started

I’ve got fourth-degree burns all over my body

Now I’m drowning in thoughts of regret

Wish I never flew too close to the sun

Now I’m an angel on fire
