And when you were mine
And you are paranoid in every paragraph
Burn
Burning the letters that might have redeemed you
Do you know what Angelica said [1]
Do you know what Angelica said [2]
For some kind of sign
From the moment I read them, I knew you were mine
He has flown to close to the sun"
He will do what it takes to survive"
How they perceive you
I hope that you burn
I saved every letter you wrote me
I thought you were mine
I'm burning the memories
I'm erasing myself from the narrative
I'm re-reading the letters you wrote me
I'm searching and scanning for answers in every line
I'm watching it burn
In clearing your name, you have ruined our lives
Let future historians wonder how Eliza reacted when you broke her heart
She said, "Be careful with that one, love
She said, "You've married an Icarus
The world has no place in our bed
The world has no right to my heart
The world seemed to burn
They don't get to know what I said
Watching it burn
When she read what you'd done?
When we saw your first letter arrive?
With only the memories of when you were mine
You and your words flooded my senses
You and your words obsessed with your legacy
You built cathedrals
You built me palaces out of paragraphs
You forfeit all rights to my heart
You forfeit the place in our bed
You have torn it all apart
You published the letters she wrote you
You said you were mine
You told the whole world how you brought this girl into our bed
You'll sleep in your office instead
You, you, you
Your sentences border on senseless
Your sentences left me defenseless
