Memory in Flame

Listening to: Hear Me Out-Frou Frou
**The progression throughout the song got me thinking... These are the images I see.

These fires around me.
Flames surrounding...

I need to be set free.

So I jump.

Falling out a window,
I land in a heap of leaves.

It's lucky I have no burns,
Or broken leg from the leap.

Renewed faith in life,
I realize I've lost the most important thing:

My heart was in that box.
Left unattended on a table.

Pin-cushioned, and marred
Illuminated by a dim candle.

My mistake to leave the room.
Window open, a breeze came in.

The candle lost it's holder,
Tumbled off into a pile of paper.

Paper hearts, aflame and in rage.
Broken parts, burning away.

Looking up at all the smoke.
I understand all that waits.

The love I lost, will heal up.
Time should cure all pain,
Especially the tears that always rain.

"I'm a slow motion accident...
Lost in coffee rings and finger prints.
I don't want to feel anything but I do.
And it all seems to always come back to you."
