must be strong of will to read
Burn me alive
take the fire from the inside
set it to my limbs
and watch me scream

All it takes
is one second of your time
so light the match for me
let me wither away

Take the blade from my hand
Make me understand
Take me away and
Push me over the edge

I've not but this one life to live
Just to make it
Not to waste it
I've not but this to give
So take my life
and let me live.
