i will crush you from my soul
and rip you from my heart
until this empty aching beat there drums no more
i will stand in the inferno of my tears
watch the memories go up in flames
until all longing for you has turned
ashes to ashes and dust to dust
i will bleed myself of this desire
for you to see me the way i see you
i will cut you from every part of my life
ruthlessly, meticulously, until there is nothing left to lose
and out of the ashes of whats left of myself
i will rise to stand in this raging inferno
and watch it all turn
ashes to ashes and dust to dust
