If I poured myself
into your mold
would all the problems
just go away?
Evaporate like rain
in the dessert
or fade
like a dying star?
Would it be better that way
if I just give myself up
for your greater cause?
I could be your
sacrificial lover
here on the alter of
desperate dreams I have collected
these past years
Here on the funeral pyre of
what I hoped this could be..
if I just burned it all up
if I just burned it all..
do you think you
could touch the dying embers
without getting burned?
