I'm burning all these memories
I'm burning all these tears.
I'm burning all these hopeless thoughts
That I've had for so many years.

I'm burning all the dreams
I'm burning all the lies.
I'm burning everything
That stays stuck inside.

I'm burning all this slutishness
That my dad has said I was forever.
I'm burning all this hornyness
So those actions won't go with me where ever

I'm burning what I don't have
Then I'm burning some more.
I'm burning down myself
I'm burning down what you called a whore.

I'm burning all that's broken,
I'm burning what you can't mend.
I'm burning till i'm choking,
I'm burning until the end.

    Keep it burning. If there are enough true tears left they'll make it stop.
