I'm on fire -
but don't use the water.
Put down your bucket -
'cause I'm just getting started.
Throw in enough oil -
so I can blaze even hotter.
Burn up my anxious skin,
because it's always a bother.
My blood keeps boiling,
I dunno what's the matter.
My soul craves an inferno -
to ascend even higher.
Please don't start to panic
when the flames grow brighter.
Just keep stoking me up -
I'm ready for the slaughter.
My charred up bones
had too many desires.
A flimsy little spark -
is not enough to keep inspired.
I want to detonate my veins -
in this useless mortal body.
Turn my brains to ashes,
because I'm always out-smarted.
Scorch up my feelings -
because I'm too cold-hearted.
A chemical reaction
because I'm so damn lethargic.
I crave something more
than what this life is offering.
Get me the gasoline -
because it cannot be altered.
I have to blow myself up
so I can restart-it.
