heat

your passion is on overdrive
i linger behind your steps
what on earth are you doing
who are you, anyway

these lost verses of yesteryear
are no longer here
calm down and reach out
for it is me who cannot steer

away

i am pleased to please your demons
and i cried when i chopped you onions
he thought it would be a great companion
but was just overdosing on playstation

go home
run away

make yourself some time
feel the heat
burn the pain away
and sleep
