Fire and Shadows

Burning bridges, watching sparks fly

Truth in the shadows, no alibi

You set the stage with a reckless hand

Stacked the odds, didn’t understand

How the flames would rise, how they'd consume

Now you’re pointing fingers, hiding in gloom

But you can't deny what’s burning inside

Echoes of the lies you tried to hide

Don’t play the victim in a story you made

You lit the match, watched her cascade

Burned her down, then turned and fled

Claiming she’s the fire, not what you bred

Watching her flicker, caught in your lie

Sprayed with ash, and bitter goodbye

You ran away, like a coward’s game

Blaming her fire, igniting shame

You can’t escape what’s etched in smoke

The truth’s a fire you can't revoke

Don’t play the victim in a story you made

You lit the match, watched her cascade

Burned her down, then turned and fled

Claiming she’s the fire, not what you bred

Oh, the flames you stoked, the king of disguise

Now the ashes tell all your lies

She’s the ember, she’s the light

While you’re lost in the night

So beware the fire that you ignite

It might just burn your wrongs so bright

Don’t play the victim when you hold the spark

You’re the fire, lighting the dark
