Sundown

Drag me over the blistering coals; free me of my soul. Let the fires keep burning as the demons keep dancing because the world won’t miss me, I know. I’ll slide away into darkness, for then I’ll come alive, I’m always chasing the beauty, in that valley on the other side. Pierce death with the sharpest nail and bring me back to “life”, give me all I’ve ever sought in the beauty of night. I’ve never asked for much by any means, I’ve held worlds together and clutched at the seams, giving all and taking the minimal back, compensating for all that I lack. Drag me over the blistering coals; free me of my soul. Let the fires keep burning as the demons keep dancing because the world won’t miss me, I know.
