One more time

Let the Fire eat me
and burn away the pain
let the rivers flood me
and wash away my vain

watch the sun disappear
just as my soul has
watch my life drum by
like slow sorrowful jazz

listen to my steady sobs
like the beating of a heart
listen to the shattering echo
as I'm slowly falling apart

touch my falling tears
rolling down my cheek
touch my beating heart
unsteady and weak

kiss me one last time
before you say goodbye
