I was a fire 

An ambitious barbarian

A lady Macbeth 

A despicable heroin 

 

I destroyed 

and consumed

and played the game 

everything I touched died

but I won, all the same 

 

It was glorious 

and lonely

but to me that didn't matter 

I was my only champion

And they were just obstacles 

ones I could shatter 

 

It was enough

to fight, and win 

and take 

it was a sweet dream 

but inevitably 

the time came to wake  

 

I grew older 

and just a bit wiser 

I looked in the mirror

and saw 

I wasn't a flame 

but a girl set on fire 

 

And it burned 

I was in hell 

the devil tore out my soul 

and left me a shell

 

Their was blood in my lungs

and smoke in my veins
