Nothing But Flame

from Nothing But Flame by Blackened Blue

lyrics

So I guess I'm not quite faithful enough for you
Posing in shackles and chains is the best I can do
There's more to life than simply writing letters
Just let me go, and I'll make your life better

Like an animal trapped in a cage
I'm writing meaningless words down on every page
Call me a ghostwriter
The cover to your memoir reads "come find her"

The sun shines down to burn everything behind the curtain
I melt like a candle when there's nothing but your flame

Bound to the paper so I never fail
Away from the sun, this is beyond the pale
I wanna live in the words of the ancient
There's no worth in reports with no patience

This ink runs deeper than the blood you bear
And I'm the one with the knife
You're taking back a tiny fraction of innocence
And I'm taking back my life



You may be an alicorn
But were you born with wings or a horn?

If you've got magic down to the core
Then tell me what you're waiting for
I know you think you're mighty up above us all
But everything that flies has got to fall
