Fire in my soul

There is a door I can barely see 

Everything is trapped inside with me

I'm left here to rot, and no one seems to have even thought 

They thought I had a life

But behind everything

You find out it was all a lie

You see the real me

And that scares me

You've seen my face, but now you're looking at me

Deep into my heart

You may want to stop now before the fire comes raging out of my soul

You won't even see it coming as it flashes before your eyes

Then you'll fall back and realize 

You made a mistake

You saw too far 

Now that you've realized, you may as well leave because the fire may come again

There is no fire extinguisher because the flames come from within.
