Flickering candle
Drink the poison
That is running down your face,
Like tears down gutters, trying to escape
To a place already flooded
Rising at such a pace
To catch us all off guard
Yet we saw it long ago
Some things weren't meant to happen
I say it so I know
Cause it's so hard, to face
Charred candle
No more poison, running down your face
Tears have dried up now
Gone without a trace
And it's so hard
That you cant rise to the occasion
And raise a glass to better days we will not waste
Cause no-ones there
In your place
