Until The Lights Burnout

have you ever tried to create colors out of nothing

but leaves, sticks and stones

you've got to breathe into it

but not too hard

to inspire that little spark

i've been working hard on this same failing fire

where there's a lot of smoke

a lot of smoke

what would you say if i told you

i'm giving up

no more air left in these lungs

you'd say, you're not burnt out

you just can't hold the flame

for long enough to make it work

and i say, i get the feeling

you're implying that i'm trying to quit

but i will whatever, whenever i see fit

i've always a motivated person with direction

and now i will direct you to the door

cause i've been working hard on this same fleeting fire

and now i'm burning it down

i'm burning it down
