lyrics

Here I am
Plucking the flower
its the strong that the weak devour
its in my eyes
the eyes of a coward
that loosing grip of yourself empowers

(A)

I cannot just leave this on the shelf
I don't care to sacrifice my self
in between my morals and what’s right
lies a pure corruption

that wants you to

burn for me
I'm in ecstasy
it's the way you breathe
hear it slowing to a crawl
as your muscles tense
loosing innocents
as it makes more sense
to gain this and loose everything

(repeat A)

When I grow thin
in my darkest hour
my desperation will give me power
so when I stand
plucking the flower
I end a struggle that once was ours

(B)

I can all but betray all my thoughts
trading all ambition for this shot
to walk in line is to be a grain of sand
I've become the island

I want you to

(chorus)

(repeat B)

I've become the island (repeat)

I want you to burn for me

standing tall and watching you fall
as I uprise
hate has seen nothing at all
compared to my eyes
burn for me and give me the bliss
your skin defines
damn it all I'm starting to miss
the glow from the blaze that was within your eyes

the glow from the blaze
the puzzle the maze
loose days
when I look in your eyes
