Pyro
The gleam
Of the sunlight
Reflecting off the glass shards
The burning wood
Shot sparks into the sky
The block would smell
Like gasoline
For weeks
The fire trucks siren
Sounded from down the street
The hand-cuffs
Cut off my circulation
As I leaned against the cop car
If they'd been here moments earlier
They would have seen me pour the gasoline
Seen me throw the match
But they wouldn't be able to stop
The old house
From burning
With you inside
Of the sunlight
Reflecting off the glass shards
The burning wood
Shot sparks into the sky
The block would smell
Like gasoline
For weeks
The fire trucks siren
Sounded from down the street
The hand-cuffs
Cut off my circulation
As I leaned against the cop car
If they'd been here moments earlier
They would have seen me pour the gasoline
Seen me throw the match
But they wouldn't be able to stop
The old house
From burning
With you inside
