Playing With Fire

Another brick wall
bangs against my head,
as I try to pretend
it will leave no mark behind.

Your love is becoming untouchable
for it is killing me inside,
and I keep chasing faiths
that I cannot seem to find.

We do not play with fire
because that's what we're told,
but here I am without a shield
risking it all for you.

So with my shining armour,
I brave the roaring flames,
hoping to burn the bridges
by taking a chance on you.
