The Life Of A Pyro

I watch the flames flicker
Burn and dance
Its beauty captivates me
Mesmerizing me into trance

As the blaze consumes
Everything in its path
Death and destruction
Is mine at last

In the other room
I hear my family scream in pain
As they're slowly devoured
By the hungry flames

They scream for help
But no one can come to their aid
Their tortured cries rise on their lips
Then slowly begins to fade

Its now my time
Time for me to escape
Disappear into the wind
Leave my family to their fate

I hear the sirens howl
In the distance not far
If I stay here any longer
Ill be put behind bars

But I stand out on the lawn
The flames rise higher into the night
So vicious like a pack of dogs
It snarls, it roars, it bites

The heat is overwhelming
As the fire destroys and burns
But out of this tragedy
Is a lesson to learn

Never mess with a Pyro
That could destroy you with 1 match
Then trap you in a living hell
Simply by locking the latch

I wonder how it feels
To feel your own skin on fire
As the blaze quenches
Its blood thirsty desire

Now its time to go
Ive overstayed too long
This is not my home now
Here I don't belong

In the shadows I watch
As they desperately try
To put out the flames
As my family within dies

When its all over
And everyone has gone home
I stand out on the street
Gazing at the destruction alone

All thats left
Is lost faith and hope
Burnt into ashes
From where I couldn't cope

My family's soul
Now taken above
Destroyed by me
And the one thing I love
