Fire of Weakness
AS WE LAY HERE
WE ARE SLOWLY CONSUMED BY A WEAKNESS
NOT A WEAKNESS OF ANGER OR HATE
BUT A WEAKNESS OF LOVE
WE ARE VULNERABLE TO NOTHING BUT EACHOTHER
THIS FORTRESS THIS BARRIER IS FORMED
NO IN NO OUT
JUST US LOCKED IN EACHOTHERS ARMS
LETTING THE WORLD GO ON
STAND STILL
OR FALTER AS IT PLEASES
IT MEANS NOTHING
THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS IS US
OUR FUTURE AND OUR PRESENT
THE PAST DOESNT MATTER ANYMORE
ITS ALL BEHIND US AND WHAT IS BEHIND US
IS JUST ANOTHER DEMON WANTING TO BREAK FREE AND DESTROY
WE WONT, WE CAN'T LET IT GO FREE
NOT WITHOUT A FIGHT ATLEAST
THIS DEMON IS LIKE NO OTHER
IT TAKES FORM OF YOU, OF ME
AND RIPS OUR OWN HEARTS OUT
THAT IS HOW WHAT WE HAVE IS A WEAKNESS
THE FUTURE, THE THOUGHT OF THE FUTURE
WILL HAVE FIRE
THE FIRE THAT WILL PROTECT US FROM THE DEMON
ITS FOLLOWERS
OURSELVES IF NECESARY
BUT THAT WONT HAPPEN
NOT WITH THE WAY THINGS ARE AT
OUR LOVE WILL GIVE THE FIRE ITS WOOD TO BURN
OUR FAITH IN EACHOTHER WILL BE THE FIREPLACE
AND OUR HOPE WILL BE THE STONE THAT KEEPS IT IN PLACE
WE HAVE OUR FIRE NOW ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS
SUPPLY THE WOOD
CLEAN THE FIREPLACE
AND POLISH THE STONE
ALWAYS, FOREVER, STEADILY
WE WILL LIVE IN PEACE
PROSPER WITH ACTION
AND LOVE WITH THE FIRE OF OUR WEAKNESS
