Burning building

Verse 1
I’m trapped inside these walls of flame,
Life’s a fire, and I’m to blame.
Every choice I make , is a spark that spreads,
Destroying all the dreams I’ve shed.
Thick smoke chokes my heart,
Tearing hope and love apart.
No way out, the heat’s too strong,
I’ve been running for so long.
Chorus
Life’s a burning building, crumbling to the ground,
Every step I take, the flames keep spinning ‘round.
No escape, no air, just ashes in my hands,
I’m falling through the embers of a life I’ll never understand.
Verse 2
The windows crack, the floors give way,
Memories fade in shades of gray.
I reach for you, but you’re not there,
Just echoes in the smoky air.
The past is gone, it’s turned to dust,
The future’s lost in flames of rust.
I’m screaming, but the world’s gone deaf,
There’s nothing but this pain left.
Chorus
Life’s a burning building, crumbling to the ground,
Every step I take, the flames keep spinning ‘round.
No escape, no air, just ashes in my hands,
I’m falling through the embers of a life I’ll never understand.
Bridge
I see the faces through the haze,
Friends and lovers, better days.
But they’re fading, slipping fast,
Swallowed by a fiery past.
I’d trade my soul for one more breath,
To outrun this dance with death.
But the fire’s got me, it’s too late,
Sealed inside this burning fate.
Outro
The roof caves in, the light grows dim,
No savior’s coming, no hymn.
Just me and this inferno’s glow,
A burning building’s all I know.
