Diary Fire

I'm burning up my diaries
About you and me
I'll watch the cinders in the breeze
Float away from me

And warm myself by that fire
The disappearing ashes of my desire for you
The light flickers out for the last time, honestly

The 17th of July 2016
The adjectives to describe what to do to me
Are flickering towards the sky
Tangled up, torrid and fried for your love
There's a wildfire coming
I can't keep running from you

I thought I'd made myself brand new
I thought I'd rid myself of you
But my eyes are still rеd and my pillow is wet
I guess I'm not done crying yеt

I thought I'd turned this ship around
But I drove the damn thing right into the ground
Now my eyes are still red and my pillow is wet
I guess I'm not done crying yet
Over you
Over you
Over you

I always thought that you and I
Could do something good
It's weird to watch the flames fly
Through the neighborhood
We tried to let the fire die
And California couldn't survive it
So what chance do I have against it
I meant it, "I'm burning for you"

I thought I'd made myself brand new
I thought I'd rid myself of you
But my eyes are still red and my pillow is wet
I guess I'm not done crying yet

I thought I'd turned this ship around
But I drove the damn thing right into the ground
Now my eyes are still red and my pillow is wet
I guess I'm not done crying yet
Over you

My eyes are still red
My eyes are still red
(I guess I'm not done crying yet) My eyes are still red
(I guess I'm not done crying yet) My eyes are still red
(I guess I'm not done crying yet) My eyes are still red
(I guess I'm not done crying yet) My eyes are still red
(I guess I'm not done crying yet) My eyes are still red
(I guess I'm not done crying yet) My eyes are still red
(I guess I'm not done crying yet) My eyes are still red
My eyes are still red
